sorry, I'm not the most computer literate one with links, but it is the second heater down, and I believe mine is so much better.....mine has a nice winter scene around it, and didn't cost me a dime.

They do not use a light bulb. It is a heated tape element that is glued to the bottom of the pan.

Been using this style for years, only fault i have with them is that the element comes loose from the pan after a couple years.

No, the second heater. scroll down. it uses a light bulb, and in the paper catalog it says it max. watt is 60.....

then below that they offer a "base" to support the fount. My landscapeing blocks work just fine.

I like yours better to!!! If I had not already bought a heated water I would have used yours. But as it so happens my daughter needed one so I gave her my old lamp and old Cookie tin and her DH put it together in about 5 min. She is very happy ,now she doesn't have to go out after work in the dark to thaw out water! works great and the price was right.
