I would recommend a Repti-Sun 5.0 of the appropriate length that will fit across your cage...

For heat, if you need it, I would use a regular household incandescent light bulb in a domed hood of a wattage that makes the basking spot at the right temperature.

What are the temps like there right now and the coming months?
If not to hot, outside sunning would be good if possible.....

As I said in my last post...IF YOU NEED HEAT....you can use the household incandescent light in the domed hood. It depends on the temperature where you are keeping the chameleon. It should be in the low to mid 80's F in the basking area for both males and females in the C. chamaeleon species and for male veileds..but female veileds and hatchlings of either species I keep in the low 80'sF.

The Repti-sun 5.0 should be the long linear tube light and will require a long hood/fixture for it...and it should have no glass or plastic between the light and the chameleon.
