thanks guys i built it for under 70 bucks(without the fan,switch and battery) too really easy to build too. And do you guys think that a 10.0 coil UVB is strong enough? i know that most of you prefer the strip ones but i like the coils cuz i can use them around the house when there no longer good for my herps!

I would go for a tube and expose the length of the enclosure to UVB. Just my humble opinion. :wink:

There are as many fans of the compacts as there are for the tubes, you pays your money and you makes your choice.

The 10.0 is fine, just keep an eye on his eyes for burning.
