Clay I'm curious, why do you have to keep a saucer under it? I just have mine sitting on a rubbery disc thingamabob to keep it from scratching up the surface it is sitting on. Also nowadays you buy them on Amazon and other online retailers, but I think I did buy mine from a gem shop over 10 years ago and they were much more expensive back then than they are now.

P.S. I just read that humidity will cause them to sweat, unless you just leave them on, then the heat from the bulb will prevent the sweat. That's why I didn't know why the need for the saucer, I only turn mine off when I go to bed and then turn it right back on when I get up in the morning. It never dawned on me about the sweating. Doh!

With the Fla. humidity, we have to keep a saucer under it & it is up on a multi-shelf unit so the pets neither will get up to it....

KELT: these lamps are very cool! If you find a gem shop close to you, they usually sell these!!!!
