Heating mats

These heating mats work great to keep my Leopard geckos warm. I use a thermostat to maintain the optimal temperature and they do fine.

These are really nice to have to put up underneath the aquariums for your lizards or whatever animal it is that you’re trying to keep warm. overtime they begin to unstick because of the heat. So I end up sticking more heat tape tape on them to keep them up underneath . But they do last a long time

Too hot

This mat gets extremely hot, burn your finger hot! I have never experienced this with any other heat mats. Not only is it too risky to use and possibly burn my snake,

This mat gets extremely hot, burn your finger hot! I have never experienced this with any other heat mats. Not only is it too risky to use and possibly burn my snake, but I feel like the mat might catch fire.

Quality

I'm just now replacing the thermal pad after using the old one for over 15 years. I love this product and so does my 25 year old Asian Box Turtle!
