    Re: Using Zoomed UTH tricks?

    Personally though, while i do like most of Zoo Med stuff, i hate their UTHs. I much prefer either Flexwatt or UltraTherm which is basically pre sized and wired flexwatt.

    I actually had a Zoo Med UTH short out and melt on me. Luckily it didnt start a fire but it did put a black spot on the bottom of my dubia colony bin.
    Yes, now that you mention it, I recall others having trouble with ZooMed UTH as well. I tried one a LONG time ago & didn't like it, but I didn't use it long enough
    to have any safety problems with it. Ultratherm has a much better reputation.

    I'm glad CALM mentioned the foil tape....I wasn't even thinking about that, but that's a good option too. I actually have a roll of it (for other purposes).
