    question, I might add. Technically the heat IS good for pythons, but there should ALSO be the mention of the safety aspect (needing a thermostat or other control).
    It's shockingly stupid of them not to say so on the package as 'directions for use'!

    I hope you pursue this & do keep us posted? It might also help if a BUNCH of us called their attention to this...big companies tend to blow off the solo calls, but if they
    realize there is a whole forum full of people behind this and that we talk to keepers everywhere, it just might get their attention. Especially if we contact other forums
    to get involved too & they keep hearing from more people. It pays to "nag" sometimes.
    It does have a "warning" in small letters in the red section on the bottom left about how it shouldnt be used as a main heat source, which is probably how they get around that.

    Doesnt make it any more useable, especially without a thermostat.
