>>I personally just heat the room (70-75), its alot easier than fumblin' with cords or heat lamps. I haven't had a problem yet. I've seen/heard of guys on here using the radiant heat panels. I know nothing about them, but it is just one more option for you.

I do use RHP in all my cages and this works well but my racks cant use RHP as an option.

I have always heated my reptile room been doing it this way for almost 15 years but it has some major drawbacks costs and electric being two of them. I love to learn and this was a learning experience, my new coarse of action is to find the most cost effective electric room heating solution that fits in my budget and keep the room at 72-75 degrees. This way Flexwatt can keep up with the temps and I can expand my collection even further.

**What else does everyone use?
