FlexWatt power usage

I am Building a new rack currently and i wanted to use 2 pieces of 11 inch flex watt. probably about 4 feet long. How much is this going to affect my electric bill. is it going to go through the roof?

Not at all :)

It will be about the equivalent to adding an extra incandescent lightbulb or two to your house. Flexwatt is highly efficient because you're not losing a bunch of energy to the production of light. It all goes into heat :)

is it better than running a single zoo med heat pad for each cage, besides the price of a zoomed pad.

If you are building a rack I would use the flexwatt imo

11" Flex is 20 watts per foot.

20 watts /ft x24hrs is 480 watts per tub x ?6 tubs 2880 ttl watts per day. less than $1 a day.
