Question on Lighting

We are trying to redo the lighting in our tank. I have a leopard. We were using the mercury vapor bulb, it burnt out. Very hard to find one locally and when we ordered, it is on back order. We have temporary lighting in the meantime.
My question is..... Does a 60 watt ceramic heating element produce the same heat as a 60 watt bulb?
Second Question.... Is it possible for him to get too many UVB rays? We need an opinion on if we should continue using the mercury vapor bulb once it arrives along with the uvb light we have in now?
Thanks!
