Will this hood take any other type of fluorescent bulb BESIDES the coiled ones?

I have this hood and it will take any style of bulb with the proper size screw-in base.

I'm using my Reptisun bulb in an aquarium hood. Just make sure you're ordering the correct size and wattage.

You can double-check on line of course, but since a halogen bulb has a filament I'd call it an incandescent bulb and wouldn'tbe deterred from using the unit as long as the wattage is OK.

Yes. I have switched out several tube type hoods for incandescent, and replaced the old bulbs with these. These bulbs will fit in even the very tight spaced hoods that don't have room for the small "twisty" standard CFL bulbs. The Coralife bulbs also have a much nicer color spectrum in their lights. I use the blue and white one on fish only aquariums and the pink and white one on planted aquariums.

No . This fixture takes the standard fluorescent tubes. I have this in my garage and it works very well for the light exposure.

This bulb will fit the nitelight style warmers. I don't know if it's large enough for the other warmer sizes.

It takes any standard base bulb, I'm using 22w spiral mercury bulbs, another plus: the glass diffuses just enough that you can't really see it's a spiral bulb.

No. They are not the same. The L one is for LEDs. The none L is for standard bulbs.

It takes a gu10 type bulb but if u have leds that have that type connection I would think so.

Yes just don't get the long cfl bulbs, unless you are hanging the fixture. Stick to the short spiral style

yes but I finally went with the coiled fluorescent and it is much better don't remember the amazon number but if you search for growth bulbs it also fits in a regular light socket.

Most bulbs are 71mm + or- 2mm for most applications. You will need to request a 73mm + or- 2mm for the Zephyr hood applications. Contact Ron Miller at ron@replacementlightbulbs.com and he will help you. Cheers.

No, it won't fit the tubes. You can get ReptiSun 10.0 coiled bulbs though, they are safe now. I use two ReptiSun 10.0's and two 2.0's myself. My beardie looks great!

A 27 W Quad Tube Fluorescent can be used with this lamp. It's just easy to buy. I had mine from here and it works just great so far Triangle Bulbs T50026 - FML27/65K, 27 Watt, 6500K Natural Daylight, 4-pin GX10q-4 Base, FML Compact Fluorescent Light Bulb

Any bulb that fits in the socket and fits the wattage should be fine. The shade screws on to the wire lamp harp and doesn't not clip over bulb if that is your concern.

Any fluorescent light fixture will work on these bulbs. You have to modify the fixture to direct route the line power directly into the end connections, by-passing the ballast. This is very easy to do and only takes a few minutes. I am sure they make fixtures without the balasts for these lamps, and if you are starting from scratch I would expect these to be cheaper than fluorescent lamp fixtures, maybe a little harder to find. I was retrofitting and replacing fluorescent bulbs with LED bulbs, so this conversion meant I did not have to buy new fixtures.

Yes; this is a nice hood. Note the "bulb" must be made to fit a high temp/big socket and it really should match the ballast for exceptional performance.
