Water bed heaters ..more

I have a few water bed heaters,you know,the ones that go under the water filled matress,was wondering if there was any way of using these under my pythons enclosures? They are thermostatically controled(a kind of wire that you run under the matress to pick up the waters temperature.Would there be a large risk of fire or overheating?

i would think it is the same as using human heating pads, and you said there is a thermostat on it so i don't see any problems. I have been using human heating pads for the past 5 months with no problems at all

I started using one about two months ago and no problems, I taped the temp probe to the back of it and my Boa just hides behind it all cozy.
