>>I was thinking of using cobra heat pads which is what I use now and very happy with them but wasnt sure if okay for plastic.



Those are supposed to be among the best for plastic - they don't get so hot.



>> I was planning on setting the temp for the pad like 90 on the warm area the pad runs steady 100 not sure if thats to hot for plastic.



No, not too hot for plastic. But if the T-stat is controlling the hot spot for 90* and the temps drop to 65* as soon as you're away from the pad, that's no good. Conversely, if you have the T-stat probe controlling the cool end for, say, 80* and the pad is running hot to do so, that's no good either. Of course in your case the Cobra pad will probably never run dangerously hot, but it may not be able to heat the far ends of the cage.



Again, that's not a huge deal for a Cal King as your room would have to be pretty cold for this to be a problem. But it does describe how a T-stat does not guarantee proper temps throughout a cage.



>>The site you gave me isnt the box this box is clear.



When you buy the box post here and let me know the brand and model number.



Thanks.
