    Yeah I have seen the Zoo Med stuff. The stuff I am looking for is the same width and thinkness as electrical wiring for a house that is used to wrap water pipes in the northern states. Most of them have a t-stat built in and turn on at 36-38 degrees. I need one with out the t-stat.

    Thanks Richard
