Good Deal on Replacement T8 Fluorescent Lamp for Overhead Reptile Light

I ordered 2 of these lights as replacements for an overhead reptile light bulb that has recently burnt out (one bulb saved for future use). The ordering process

I ordered 2 of these lights as replacements for an overhead reptile light bulb that has recently burnt out (one bulb saved for future use). The ordering process was quick and easy and I received the shipment the soonest I had possibly thought it could arrive. It was a good shopping experience.

Perfect

Arrived quickly and started right up. I buy the desert series for my turtle because the light fixture is pretty far away from his basking platform and otherwise

Arrived quickly and started right up. I buy the desert series for my turtle because the light fixture is pretty far away from his basking platform and otherwise he doesn't get enough UVB (I have verified this with my solarmeter). I only order these lights from Chewy anymore because when you buy from local pet store (or even Ama$on), you run the risk of it having been a return/used and a dud which has happened to me before when not ordering from Chewy. Chewy is best always!

would constantly flicker and then eventually stopped working only after 3 months

I bought this light in January, it would sometimes flicker until i move the light an inch and then it would stop. Now, it has officially stopped working.

Did not last long

The original bulb went out after 3 years of usage, when I purchased the replacement, it did not even make it to 3 months. Booo
