    Mine came from Home Depot. Not the heater that is an issue... it's the $10/month to run it :) Time for me to man up and heat the closet !

    i use 3/4 melamine as well. I also use an oil filled radiator to heat my room to 70. I have it running on the medium setting (800 watts). Without it my room would be 50! If I could, i would just heat my room to 80. this would certainly make things a lot easier.

    THANKS for the input. I left it on Low main setting and max temp over night... I checked @ 5:30 am and thermometer read 79.4. A quick look @ the tubs confirms... 7 of 10 snakes are now at the front of their tubs instead of the back... where flexwatt is closest to.
