Heat Tape Recomendations

[patientz3ro]

Actually wasn't jacked, more of a lesson on using the proper tools on the job at hand.
What is your difference in temps when plugging multiple pieces into a power strip then into your stat?
I wire all of mine together and then only have one plug into the stat from each rack.
Some people like each piece having its own plug so they can replace it when it goes bad.
Its just as easy to do when they are soldered together too.

I don't think he was talking about power strips. If I understand his meaning, he cuts the tape into strips,wires them all into a single cable, then plugs that into the Tstat. Basically creating a multiple element heater.

Nice 2A sticker BTW. I actually started a blog page a while back called Pythons, Pistols, and Pit Bulls. 3 things I advocate for very passionately.

Also, having been an avionics tech and aircraft electrician for both the Navy and Northrop Grumman, I've built a pretty impressive collection of crimping tools. I've got a few turret crimps that set me back $200+. $60 for a crimper? I'll take two please, and call it a bargain.
