Answer
Why FIVE lights ???

You only need ONE - a 160 watt mercury vapour UV & Heat Lamp such as the Zoo Med PowerSun lamp. This should also have a guard over it and switched on from 12 to 14 hours a day.

Download and read these two booklets I have written:

and

A reference book is also available to download and save to disc:

======================================================================
For a juvenile monitor lizard you need use a 48" x 24" x 24" (or larger) wooden vivarium with glass sliding doors for 1 or 2 Beardies, something like this:

Glass is not a suitable material to use for keeping high-temperature / desert living reptiles from Africa in !
Wood has better heat-retaining properties and will also stop your lizard having too much humidity in the enclosure. Glass tends to cause chest infections & skin conditions due to condensation and lack of ventilation.

Heating should be provided by a roof-mounted 100 watt or 150 watt ceramic heat emitter:

or a reptile radiator

connect either device to a thermostat set at 75ºF. The probe should be sited 3" off the floor at the opposite end of the vivarium to the heater [the cool end].

It is ESSENTIAL that the heater is protected by a mesh guard to prevent your lizard burning itself:

Day-time Ultra-Violet light, "normal" white light and basking spot heat should be provided by a 160 watt mercury vapour UV & Heat Lamp such as the Zoo Med PowerSun lamp. This should also have a guard over it and switched on from 12 to 14 hours a day.

How do you get better reception on a baby video monitor?




KMCelio


I just bought a Summer Video Monitor and it doesn't work without static between two rooms in our small condo. I am hoping there is a way to improve reception, because right now I can't even keep it on at night because the static noise is so great, and when I turn the monitor on the picture is pretty fuzzy and jumps in and out. Any advice?


Answer
Try unplugging any electronic devices between the transmitter and receiver, see if something is causing interference.
