just use a human heatin pad. thats what i use.

11 or 25" heat tape wil do ya just fine. Human heating pads are not desigined to be on all the time and can pose a potential fire hazard...

25-inch heat tape would be insane! What is the wattage????

He has it marked on his site as 17 Watts.. Which is located HERE. Does that sound right? Lower wattage than the 11"??

That's wild... I've never seen such huge heat tape available before. I like that it is even lower wattage as well!
