Does anyone know the difference between the Hagen Exo Terra Desert Heatwave heat mat and the Hagen Exo Terra Heat Wave Rain Forest heat mat? One says it simulates dessert heat while the other says it promotes humidity. Yet neither mentions temps.

I assume the desert is hotter, but I do not know for sure. Also wouldn't any heat mat add humidity assuming the subsstate was wet (such as damp bed a beast or the like)?

Just curious if anyone new.

Thanks

I use 3 inch flexwatt. Its really cheap. Its like 3 dollars a foot, a cord is like a dollar and a cimmer is lie 6.

I buy all my stuff online through Reptilesupply.com and I saw those. From reading the description, I believe the Rainforest ones simply don't get as hot.

Thank you. I assumed the same thing. It would be helpful if they included that little piece of information. Oh well. Thanks
