I've heard they don't give off nearly as much heat as infrared bulbs and was worried about that.

Would you recommend them over the red heat bulbs for the night heat for my tegu and the main heat for my blue tongue skink?
I was told by someone that a 150w and 250w couldn't even get their skinks basking area past 80. I'm still considering it might be a good investment for some night heating for the tegu since around 80 degrees should be good.

Could you tell me your cage dimensions and what wattage bulbs you use and the temperatures they create in the enclosures please??
