Yes...tested by myself and several others on another group. The light you're using for heat is a serious waste of money. Regular house bulbs do the same job for A LOT less... .

You'll save yourself tons of money buying a 60-100 watt halogen bulb. I got mine for free.

Yup, I use 250W IR lamps from Lowes for my heat lamps. 10$ a piece. But...just to be clear...your UVB lamps will NEVER be cheap unless reptiles become as popular as dogs. So, you'll have to shell out cash for UVB lamps, but NOT for heat lamps.

DOH!!! Just to qualify my last statement, unless you have a habitat for your ig that is as big as mine, you should use something a WHOLE LOT less powerful for your heat than what I'm using.
