I have never heard of anyone using heat tape for creating a “cool”side in a rack, only hot side. Most people, myself included, use some sort ofheater to achieve the desired “cool” side temps. Has anyone ever tried using twostrips of heat tape & two thermostats in a rack to achieve the proper tempsinstead of altered ambient room temp? I feel like this method would well forthose individuals that do not have the luxury of dedicating an entire room oftheir house entirely for their snakes or younger keepers that live at home with their parents & keep snakes in their bedrooms. Personally, I couldn’t imagine having tosleep in a room that constantly stayed at 80 degrees.
