RHP with common boa

for my 1/4 cent worth of opinion, id lean towards the RHPs, if they made a flexwatt like object or platform that could go in the enclosure id be more into them but due to the fact that the flexwatt has to heat through the bottom of the cage, through the substrate(thick or thin) and then into the reptile. all while the opposite side of the flexwatt is exposed to signifagantly cooler ampient air. it just seems like a inefficient method.

i liken it to leaving the oven door open while cooking, yea it might cook your food but your gonna waste a lot of heat to the kitchen during that time.

But... Flexwatt is very cheap, easy to use, low energy consumption, and like they said does work well for thousands of people. it makes perfect sense for those who own racks or large numbers of snakes where $90-300 per heat element is not do able for that type of breeder or owner.

That's all I've come up with so far.
