11 or 25" heat tape wil do ya just fine. Human heating pads are not desigined to be on all the time and can pose a potential fire hazard...

He has it marked on his site as 17 Watts.. Which is located HERE (http://www.mgreptiles.com/flexwatt.html). Does that sound right? Lower wattage than the 11"??

Yuppers 17 watts but has bigger element strips going across the strip.. It is hugh..lol.. I am thinking of putting some under my bed..lol.. Make my own little basking spot...

[Linds]

That's wild... I've never seen such huge heat tape available before. I like that it is even lower wattage as well!
