    Re: Best under tank heater??

    Sorry for the bump but I figured it's better than starting a whole new thread..

    http://www.reptilebasics.com/ultrath...ter-uth-11-x11

    I was looking to order this, and it says you generally don't need a thermostat. I'm confused now, do I need one or not? And at what temp would my snake get burned? I'm assuming this wouldn't get hot enough during normal operation, only if it malfunctions, correct?

    If I really do need a thermostat, do you have a recommendation for an inexpensive, reliable one? Also, this is probably a stupid question but why is the wattage so high on thermostats that you'd use on a low-wattage heat mat?

    Thanks!
