    Re: Flexwatt?????

    Why not just continue posting in the thread you already have concerning flexwatt and thermostats, instead of flooding the forum with yet another thread... ?

    It would help people understand where you're getting the previous info or how you came up with the current question.

    In your titles, WHY do you have to use So much punctuation? I think most ppl get the point with using one

    As far as I know, I have never heard of flexwatt being dangerous. As long as it is controlled (thermostat).

    Really... SOMEONE HELP THE GUY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (dont like my exclamation? Get over it.)
    have you seen this?
    It seems that you should be fine so long as you use a thermostat and always monitor the heat (Which you should do with any heat source)

    Lesson learned: ALWAYS DO LOTS OF RESEARCH BEFORE YOU BUY!

    There have been horror stories of Flexwatt. If you use proper husbandry keep an eye on it and inspect it regularly (just like you should with EVERY heat source) there should be no problems.
