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
