Low voltage halogen technlogy offer interesting opportunities for the future of herp keeping. For one it is possible to develop safe lamps which can also be used under extreme conditions like in a rainforest vivarium, e.g. the Lucky Reptile Jungle Lamp. Furthermore the development of compact luminaires is possible that allow terrarium construction without a mess of wires in the lid or lamps and sockets pointing deep down inside the cage. Low voltage halogen lamps match the light and heat performance of their 230V relatives but usually achieve longer lifes.
