I've replaced the heat lamps with rhp's in several of my cages. I've had some snakes actually get minor burns from flood lamps because they sat under the light too long. That was from a 60 watt bulb from about a foot away!

I've found with some of my cages that a rhp and a heat mat below makes for a nice and toasty warm spot.

>>which one do you think is better any pros/cons i'm thinking about getting the radiant heat pannels in place of some of my heat lamps and wanted to get some info from people that have used them
