By your own admission they can get up to at least 125 degrees...

it takes about 15 seconds for a human to get a second degree burn from 125 degree water... so what do you think that will do to a cold blooded snake sitting on it for hours? common sense says that the snake will get burned.
it won't be 125 degrees once it passes through glass and substrate.
