    not sure if you asking "how" to physically set it up or "what" people are using.


    Following Ed's reply I'm using a Herpstat with 3" flexwatt.

    Re: Temp in a Shoe Box Rack

    I use 11" Flexwatt with a DBS-1000, and have had great results. I run the flexwatt down the back, vs. belly heat, and manage to get about a 8-10 degree gradient in my tubs.
