It is your choice it just seems more complex and expensive for no gain. If the enclosures were complete it is a different issue then it is the only option but with a cheaper and easier option (better in terms of cleaning for certain) I see no reason why. Perhaps more useful with boas as they are semi arboreal and actually may benifit from basking but balls? It is just another adapt a product to do something it wasn't designed to do moment. I have two panels from rb. It works ok but runs cool as I simply refuse to have the top of the hide warmer than 94 degrees and that means the floor is 88 ok I guess but with a uth the floor is 90 spot on and the hide top 88 perfect the correct temp where the snake is and nothing inside is warmer. I only use one now and that is for a bearded dragon it is perfect for him.
