Its crucial imho that keepers are open and honest about their mistakes or what they think they could improve so others can learn from them.

I think adding more branches would make it an even better enclosure and adding more plants gradually overtime. Great enclosure though, and a really cool idea.

You should put a branch on the back wall above the door around 8ft, cover it in fake vines, and connect it to the chameleon home using a length of rope, so if he feels like really getting out the way, he can go up there to hide.

Maybe add ivy or pothos to the branches to give him something extra to climb on? They're really easy plants to grow and wrap around things so it might help give him something to cover the top branches and you can always cut it back if it gets to high, just a suggestion, the video was great

Suggestion from a previous Swedish Electricians, aka EU. It is a good rule of thumb to place your earth wire in-between Neutral and Phase. Just as a layer of safety, if anything happens. Your RCD, at least I hope your building has it. Will smack off. Alternatively, you can buy one for a socket, that has lower tolerance. 10mA instead of 30mA. It basically detects if the current takes another way, than it should. The next thing is, that LED 'panel' is of metal, aye? You might want to earth that. Just in case it for what ever reason gets current. Nobody can touch it and get a jolt. Switching current can ruin nerves, so it is not really just a 'harmless jolt'. It might not appear till 30-40 years later when the body degenerate. Anyhow, that is just my words on the topic. Bit of nitpicky, but Swedish Electrical practice is quite nitpicky in general.

I think the enclosure should have another ''tree'', and at least a couple horizontal perches. Right now the Chameleon, a big Chameleon, just has three lanes to go up and down with little cover and little horizontal compared to the previous enclosure.

In UK it’s strict too. I’m an electrician also. Although the fixture should be earthed, you may find because of the transformer that manufactures instructions state it’s class 2 double insulated and shouldn’t be earthed. But, exposed connector blocks aren’t allowed and single insulated exposed outside of fitting is also shit and not allowed here. I hate watching other people do electrical work thinking it’s easy and “it works!” . Yeah it may work but it’s not safe.

Might be a good idea to get him a hide out (or hidey hole) on the tree? Maybe something that looks a bit like a squirrel hole of even a bird house hanging on the tree where he can hide when he wants to. That might be cool. Edit: Also just wanted to say its really cool that you spend time building your enclosures, really shows workmanship, skill and dedication.
