    reptile basics rack trouble

    On my reptile basics rack (CB-70), the back row of heat tape is not working. I sent an email to rbi bought they have not gotten back to me. Any suggestions. The heat tape won't heat up.

    Thanks.

    Re: reptile basics rack trouble

    What are you using to control the temps?

    Will it work if you plug it straight into the wall?

    Sounds like a bad wiring connection.

    I am using a ranco. The second row heats up fine. I will try plugging it in the wall.

    Just making sure, the CB-70 has 2 plugs(one for each row of flex-watt) and both are pugged in, right?

    Yes, I know there are 2 plugs. It heats up when plugged into the wall. I just plgged it back into my thermostat. We will see.

    Given the fact that this weekend was a holiday weekend you might try and call him.

    Rich is great at returning calls or e-mails...I'd call him and leave a message and he should get back to you shortly...He has always taken care of me if anything happened...
