Heat tape
I've been considering getting a rack built, using heat tape to heat it. I'm still checking everything out, and i'm not sure yet if i'm going to build it this way.
If you have a couple strips of heat tape, all with their own cords, I understand you can plug them into those boxes with a lot of places for plugs. (I forgot what they're called. They're those white rectangular things that have a bunch of plug-holes, and a switch to turn them on/off.)
Now, with all the heat tape plugged into that thing, can 'that thing' be plugged into a rheostat (dimmer) to moderate the temperatures of the heat tapes? Or will this not work? I don't know if any of you have heard of it before, but if you have, please let me know. I don't know if it would work or be safe, so if anyone thinks this might work, let me know.
