My question is how would I go about connecting the 2 strips on the shelf together. And how would I go about connecting the shelves together? Cus if I did each shelf individually that would mean I would need a herpstat for every shelf right? Either way could I get the supplies at HD or are they specific parts I can only get from the reptile supply site?
11 is not to much...........I run 11 on my rack and it works great. The WHOLE hot side is 1 temp and it helps raise my over all ambient temp to 82 cool. Works like a charm.
