Under the tank heaters...show me your set up please

[PitOnTheProwl]

About a week ago our snake burnt his underbelly on his heating pad. The pad majorly malfunctioned (also our fault because we had no regulator). I said never again will we use one. Now I'm curious though after seeing post after post about them. So, how do you have yours set up? Directly touching the tank? On the "feet" (definitely would like to see pics because I've never seen those)? Wrapped in foil tape? They work nicely when they want to, I'm just nervous I suppose. The extra heat would be nice for him to coil up on.

SMH................ You cannot blame the pad and claim malfunction the you never installed it properly.




Now my question is: How are you caring for the belly burn and how bad is it?
