Works as expected and doesn't get broken like heat bulbs

We live in a post and beam that is older and during really cold weather the pipes will freeze. So we place heat lamps in various places around the house to prevent pipes from freezing. One of which is under the kitchen sink. Which is where I intended to use this ceramic heat "bulb". Prior to the temps dropping into the teens, I tested this out to see just how warm it would keep that cabinet. The bulb is well constructed and appears it will be more durable that an incandescent heat bulb but it just doesn't put out the same amount of heat. I didn't trust that it would perform the same and swapped it out for a brooder bulb before the temps dropped further. I will eventually find another use for it. It is nice in that it doesn't provide a possibly bothersome light source, it's just in this case I expected more than the product was capable of providing.

This seems a lot more durable than a regular red light heat lamp

For the wattage it works ok. Does not produce a lot of heat.
