I had a bit of a look into them when I was getting the kit for my new vivs (4x2x2's) and decided not to use them and go for the standard ceramic setup instead. Most of the people who use them have them to help maintain the ambient temp in their large vivs and have a separate heat source to create the hot spot. If this is what you are looking for then they do that job well I believe but as the only heat source I am led to believe they aren't great.
