    Re: Tub & heating pad?

    Well i use rack systems but it is very similar. Just put the UTH under the tub and buy a thermostat to regulate the temps. You are also going to want to buy a thermometer the measure the temps. of the hot spot and the cold spot.

    This is the thermometer i used to use, but now i use temp. guns.

    It has a probe so it can measure both spots with one thermometer.

    A good thermostat to use in my opinion would be: http://spyderrobotics.com/products/herpstat.html.

    Make sure to use a thermostat or at least a rheostat. Your snake will get burnt from the pad plugged directly into the wall and it will be impossible to achieve the right temps.

    Hope this helps.
