I got our Zoomed UTH at Petsmart, and it's worked very well combined with the ReptiTemp 500R. Without being regulated, the UTH can reach lethal temps over 100 degrees.
While waiting for the 500R to arrive (it was ordered online) I kept our BP away from the heat with 2" of bark substrate. Now with the 500R, the substrate is merely a few sheets of newspaper with paper towel on top. Through trial and error, I learned that was the best way for temps to remain true and constant.![]()
