getting much better. I think instead of electrical tape it would be easier to just tape some plastic over the screan lid and leave just over an inch on each side for ventalation...just use a grabage bag for your plastic. Those pags get hot too, the adhesive oned you need to be a little more carefull with. Since they stick directly to the glass they conduct heat more than one that would have a thin layer of air between it and the glass. You should be alright though. I aldo like to wedge bamboo from walmart or a place like that in the walls so you dont take up floor space but the snake can climb on it. If you dont understand what I mean I might be able to get a picture for you. And for temp readings with the heat pad...you can have one or 2 in the cage but one of my coolest toys is a little temp gun that I can hit a button and move along the cage and get floor and air readings around my tanks. Here is a cage pic that sort of shows how i wedge in the bamboo but its not great.
