Exo Terra Ceramic Heater, 110-Volt

Hello, I had one of these heaters that lasted approx 6 months. The wires that attach to the end and the ceramic crumbled, making it impossible to fix. I did buy another one but again the same thing happened.

They stopped heating, and I wanted to check that the heater was screwed into the socket, and when I went to turn it, the whole thing twisted, except for the metal part that is screwed into the socket, making the ceramic crumble, and the heating wires separate from the end.

I would stay away from these types of heaters.

I bought this heater in September 2008 and used it for a month. It worked when I turned it on again for a few days in May, 2009. But then, when I went to use it again this September, it was not working. So don't buy it. I just had to order a different brand this morning.

Exo Terra, if your going to put a product out be truthful on how long it will last. I bought 2 and both went out in 3-4 months. A lot of money spent on a poorly made product.

Exo Terra PT2048 Ceramic Heater 250W 110V The does exactly what it says it does, and I used it with the "required" Exo Terra wire fixture. It lasted 4 months and failed. I discovered that it was not putting out heat when my Bearded Dragon became unusually inactive. Turns out that the base of the lamp where the hot side of the circuit touches the tab in the socket was burnt and separated from the base of the lamp and the lamp itself had burnt out. The tab in the socket was black as if there had been excessive heat or arching. Exo Terra requires that the heater must be used with only it's wire enclosed socket, so that is what I bought. It is also to last 5 years... mine lasted 4 months and 10 days. I have ordered another, we'll see how it goes. My terrarium is a large one and requires a 250 watt ceramic heater to maintain the temperature. While it worked, it did the job. I plan to contact the company and see what they have to say. One other note, even though it is a 250W heater, I still needed a basking lamp and infrared lamp to maintain the hot side temperature in my terrarium. That was not a problem, but worth nothing that the 250W is not enough alone.
