Re: Pro Exotics PE-2 Temp gun review

Yes, the side of the bulb, even the edge, is a lot cooler than the face.

The problem with bulb "guards" is that they produce exactly the OPPOSITE effect intended.

I have seen plenty of lizards severely burned in cages with bulb guards or bulb cages. That is because the lizards can't resist grabbing the cage and hanging on, right next to the bulb. Even worse are the few times I have seen lizards get caught INSIDE those dopey cages, literally cooked to death.

I have never had a lizard get a bulb burn using openly hanging bulbs.

In the mid-90s, when we got our first temp gun, it completely revolutionized the way we kept lizard species, and our success with them.
