Rack setup Q's
Can someone show me how their racks are setup? I am looking to get one very shortly and wanted to see how they are setup before I get one.
My main question would be - How is the heat/thermostat setup to run all off the tubs?
If anyone can give me some guidance, that would be great!
Thanks,
-Jordan

Re: Rack setup Q's
I apologize for not having a personal experience to share, or do I even have a rack system. But, fortunately I have been doing a lot of research over the past few weeks about this subject.
YouTube - Heating Snake Racks - part 2
I hope this helps out. I'm sure others will be along shortly with more of a personal answer.
Good luck with your rack, post some pictures when you get it up and running!
Cheers!

Re: Rack setup Q's
Very good video! Gotta love Ralph!
I think my biggest question is...how is the heating and the stat wired? for example...do you have to have a chord for every slot or is there a way to consolidate all the heat mats/tape into one or two plugs?

Re: Rack setup Q's
Check these out
Wiring flex-watt heat tape
Reptile racks DIY
The first one is about connecting flex-watt, and within the second link find the plans for the "iris" rack (I think it is the second one down). It shows you how he daisy chains the flex-watt for the whole rack.
These are from the same site. There is a menu at the top if you want to hop around and check it out, I have found a lot of great info on there for racks and heat. Hope this helps, cheers!
