and Lastly i HAVE read that care sheet and many more like it
Also as per your thanks you need to EARN something like that instead you came in here and bashed my ENTIRE set up without explaining why it was. Unlike MikeV who DID earn my thanks for explaining why it did not work so before you come in here and shout unfounded hate at a "newbie" i will ask you to think before you speak...
and as for the last word please try to make it intelligent this time instead of HATEFUL and uneducated...
wow this is starting to get a little hostile, last post was all in fun, but point being have a little respect for the people that answer your question.
lets recap
you wanted to know what the cheapest setup was, I told you, I did not bash anything. you refute by saying you don't need a thermostat/dimmer with UTH... which is incorrect information, you get corrected, I add a little more to it (this convo should of ended here or with an added "thanks for the info"), and you ask why I didn't tell you in the first place? well if you read the caresheet... you would of known, care sheet should be considered common knowledge around here, anyways, then give me a little disrepectful shot because "your new" and apparently i can't read...
at no time did shout newbie hate or show any disrespect until it was called for. you could of picked better adjectives to describe what I said such as harsh or direct. but nothing was hateful and I don't feel anything I said was uneducated.
its not that heatpad wouldn't work on a rack, as I said before, i use one...their expensive compared to flexwatt thats all. all heat need to be regulated as stated in the caresheet.
before things get too hostile, im done, you may have the last word...go ahead

I don't even recess the heat into the wood, flexxwatt is thin enough you can just tape it down and the tubs slide over it. I would imagine most heatpads would be the same way tho. so i think you might be doing extra work.
Instead of saying that you could have simply explained how flexxwatt is cheaper and how the heatpads NEED to be on a thermostat but no all you said was how much "extra work" my idea was that i only posted to thinking i would express a thought i had...

as for hostile I'm not being hostile I'm only defending the fact that thanks are earned... which if you would have READ the entire thread i DID thank MikeV for his helpful input as for respect its earned not given but if it means that much to you let me just say Thank you for replying to my thread with such "enthusiasm" so if that's all you wanted please refrain from continuing this pointless belittling argument :gj:
