    this is the one that I purchased.. I will upgrade to a herpstat or helix. so far it works great, keeping the pads at the temp that I want.

    Re: feedback on T-Rex Cobra Heat Pads
    Thanks for all the replies everyone.

    I've used a wide variety of heating sources over the years but I figured with a forum I can get some feedback from others based on their experience of items before I go out & try something new. After a while you get tired of experiments going to goodwill or the trash.

    I'm about to purchase a few new pads for some temporary setups. Since I was I thought I might try something new if I got some good feedback on them. I need them to be versatile & have the ability to be reused in different applications since initially they will be on temporarily setups.

    Thanks again all

    If anyone has any other info please feel free to post.
    :D

    I've done it with two huge pads. It just takes patience. If you use enough glue remover and are gentle with the scraper, it never bends.

    Ok I just got my reptile magazine today and inside was flyer from some online pet supply
    I was notice that they have T-Rex cobras
    What interesting (beside price) in product description they write that
    Quote:

    The mat remains at steady 100 F .......
    Can anyone can confirm that because if so they should be easy to control just with dimmer
    Thanks in advance
