Corded vs. cordless heat lamps- which one should you choose?

Heat lamps are either corded or cordless.

Corded heat lamps are easy to install. You can cover their cords but aggressive dogs can chew them.

Cordless lamps use batteries. They’re portable and convenient but expensive in terms of battery replacement. They’re also hard to monitor in your dog’s house.

Our top picks like Zilla Black Reflector Dome Lamp, Simple Deluxe Clamp Lamp, Woods Clamp Lamp are corded. They have a 6-foot long cord.

Whether you pick a corded or cordless heat lamp, put it where your mutt can’t access it.

Is it expensive to run a heat lamp?

100 watts, for 24 hours, is 2400 watt hours, or 2.4 kilowatt hours. So, take your cost per kilowatt hour, and multiply by 2.4. If your energy cost is 10 cents per kwh, then it costs you 24 cents to run a 100 watt light bulb for 24 hours.
