Do small UTH heaters and heat bulbs really use a ton of energy? The electricity bill went up $20 this month, and the only thing that is different is that I'm running 2 repti-therm uth pads, a 1-5 gallon and a 10-20 gallon, a 50 watt bulb buring the day in my leopard gecko's tank, and a 50 watt infrared in my ball python's tank at night.
I didn't realize that such a small setup could increase my utilities by that much.
