UTH Question

[Cheesenugget]

I use Zilla UTH for all of my snakes enclosures: glass, tub and PVC (Animal Plastics). As long as you have them on a thermostat, temps are confirmed with a temp gun the day of set up and every now and then as part of maintenance, it is fine. The only annoyance about this brand or possibly UTH with adhesives in general is that some won't stick. I used duct tape on my UTH to make sure it stays on the bottom of my tanks.

I haven't used Zilla UTH so I don't know how many watts they run (or how hot they get?), but it sounds like they are trying to protect themselves from anyone melting
their plastic tubs & trying to sue? If you are using it with a quality functioning thermostat (as you should be), I suspect you're ok...what is the hottest that it gets?
And are you ever running it full blast? (like in a really cold room...?) Personally, I'm a glass tank user myself, hopefully others can chime in on this? Used with
higher temperatures, plastic cages of all kinds can melt or warp.

I have a herpstat EZ1 and I'm keeping it at like 93-95, this brings the floor of the cage to 87ish then with the CHE (on a seperate thermostat) on that side thee hide has been around 88-89 on the inside, any the room isn't at all cold. Its a 14 watt UTH

Sounds pretty safe to me.
