heat tape wattage?

I use heat tape for my leos and I was wondering what the wattage for every foot of 3" and 4" heat tape is. Thanks to all those who reply.

Is it a heat pad? that you will put under the tank?? if it is, just find one that will fit under one of sides of the tank...the wattage doesnt really matters that much, if its not that cold, and not too hot.

No, hes talking about heat tape. On the bean farm site it says that for 3 inch heat tape that the wattage per foot is 10 watts and the wattage per foot for 4 inch heat tape is 8 watts.
