What is everyone's favorite basking bulb/setup? For Florida keepers, what does everyone do with their outside chams? Bring in or keep heat sources outside?

I prefer par20 low wattage floodlights, I do also use standard housebulbs in various wattages... All inside mini domes.
 
My light fixture has 3 sockets, so I have 2 25w high lumens bulbs and 1 60w halogen in the middle, gives a nice basking gradient of 92-84 degrees...I don't quite get your last question though
 
I bring mine inside at night when it is in the 50's. During the day I use the good ole sunshine of Florida! Inside their indoor cages I use a dome with about a 75 watt bulb. I have their basking at about 90 plus degrees. They are panther chameleons.
 
I use Phillips PAR20 Flood lamps that are 50watts. Tilt at an angle and you'll be all set. Just do not use these lamps on young chams and DO NOT buy the spot version of this lamp. If the glass is clear on the lens, do not use it.
