Well, I would have to agree if the whole cage is getting up to 82 during the day then I would seggest putting the heat pad on a timer so that it comes on at night when the ambient goes down to the low 70's. I did overlook the ambient of 82 deal there. However, if he could get the ambients down to the upper 60's or low 70's AND provide the hot spot I think it would be ideal. Hell, my rubber boas even sit on a hot spot in the high 80's and low 90's at times. But then again, they have a cooler ambient temperature. I know all of my animals benefit from a small hot spot in the their cages, but they do have a lower ambient temp within the cage.
