    Reptile basics has THG heat tape and the connectors are a little different from flex watt. RB will attach the connectors and insulator for you for a small fee. That's what I use and haven't had any issues.

    I haven't used flex watt, but from what I can tell they're practically the same. I think THG is 12" wide compared to 11" for flex watt.
