I asume you were considering the RHP because of the infared heat it emits the safty involved in the unit and the semi aborial nature of the Carpet Python.



If that is true I would probably recommend sticking to the CHE, its not nearly as safe as a RHP but it will provide a similar type of heat to the enclosure.



A word of caution the animal must not be allowed to contact the CHE!!!



I would recommend using a thermostat of some kind to operate the CHE.



You could use bulbs but there are less efficiant and well I don't like light!
