Those sticky UTHs are awful, because if you try and remove it you can damage the inside wires and cause severely inconsistent temps including hot spots. I switched completely over to Flexwatt, because it's cheap and can be cut down to whatever size you need. The probe needs to be attached to the heat source, so if you remove the UTH you might damage it, but there isn't really any other place to put the probe.

    Edit: you don't need a backup. I have multiple racks, and I keep backups on mine for "just in case". I wouldn't have one for just one enclosure.
    The fix to that is place foil on the sticky part of the uth and then use foil tape to attach the uth to the cage. This makes removing it easy.

    These are also a good design for some cages. They work well on my PVC ones. http://www.reptilebasics.com/ultrath...ter-uth-11-x11
