Does this need a transformer or controller unit? Or does it just plug in and work straight from the box? Thanks

Just needs clipping to roof of bibarium & plugs in. Has built in transformer

What size bulb will fit? I need the 39w which is 34 in.

The T5 kits come as a complete set up, so bulbs are included. We have the 12% Desert and 14% Dragon versions available. Hope this helps,

Our tortoise house is 33cm high, is this ok to fit inside at the top or will it be too close to the tortoise?

I am about that distance away and it’s fine, the only issue I had is the trailing wire as the tortoise likes to climb on top off its hide and pull it out as it runs under the roof. If you have it out the way it will be fine.
