    Belly Heat Flexwatt One Strip

    It seems to me like people are complicating their lives by cutting flexwatt and connecting them in parallel to then plug them into the thermostat.

    Wouldnt it be possible to simply run the flexwatt on the bottom shelf then up on the side to the second shelf and on the bottom of the second shelf to the other side, then up on the side to the third shelf and so on in one continuous strip without ever cutting the flexwatt nor having to make more than one connection.

    I am going to build a rack soon and was wondering if anyone else had done it this way or if people had any opinions on whether or not this is a good idea.

    Thanks
    Philippe

    Awesome,

    Im glad to hear it could be done.
    Does anyone have any pictures of how they did it?
    How does the spacing work between the end of the shelves and the side board to allow the flexwatt to pass from one shelf to the other?

    Thanks
