    In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Hi there,

I'm definitely over thinking this but what kind of wiring should I pick up if I would like to wire my fixatures so they will plug into a surge protector or outlet? This is my first time trying this. Please point me in the direction of a detailed website or thread if you want!
 
If you have a hard wired fixture and want to turn it into a plug in fixture, you will probably want to buy an extension cord that already has the wiring and plug.
But most reptile fixtures are sold with a plug.
 
I'm building my own enclosure! Sorry, I am drilling holes and I was just wondering what extension cord you would recommend? I just feel like I need a tutorial or something.
 
I usually buy a cheapo 8' extension cord from HD and just cut off the female end.
