Using a heat mat

[Stewart_Reptiles]

It’s a viv so it won’t be going inside as the heat wouldn’t get through. There’ll be a cover over the mats to prevent burns. That’s why I don’t know where to place the probe.

You will have to hot glue the probe if you want to do that and even than it will not prevent all the issues that can arise such as temp shooting up when cool down by urine or water.

And the "there will be a cover over the mats" is gonna make it a fire hazard as well and won't prevent anything.

In your situation what you need is a RHP (Radiant heat panel)
