Mike are you talking about the ultratherm heaters? All undertank heaters WILL go over 95 degrees. This is a marketing play to make you buy their pad.. It depends on what the air temp is as to wither or not the pad will over heat in the cage. I have had several people call me to order a stat for those pads and were mad because they were eld to beleive it woudl not go over a certiain temp. The pad has no way of telling if it is overheating or any way of adjusting itself if it does...
Hope this helps,
-Matt
