I would not allow that tool dip stuff to get anywhere near a CHE. Having some experience with both, albeit not together, I think the heat would destroy that stuff quickly and probably release some nasty fumes at the same time.

For the record, I like CHE's and suspect that reptiles like the heat produced by them. For large constrictors I might look into some of the less expensive hog blanket heaters and turn them into a radiant heat panel of sorts. No idea on the cost compared to a CHE, however.
