Negative, this is what research is for.
If you decide to be a keeper, you should have some knowledge of husbandry.
None of it is hard to find, people seem to want to google everything else.
FYI, the heat mat didn't malfunction, it got hot like they do when unregulated.

But there is also alot of misinformation out there too.

Researching over the last few weeks I've read numerous 'experts' claim only high wattage mats need statting as their mats won't go above required temps.

Sadly alot of mistakes are avoidable but they do happen.
