Do you have a thermostat yet? You need to control all heat sources on a thermostat(not to be mistaken for a thermometer)
Yeah, that's what I thought too. Well, I just purchased a second heat mat and a thermostat. I'm sure he'll be happy with that.

However, I shouldn't have to worry about controlling his hot spot mat, right? Only the second mat on the cool side?
