Thanks for your input fella's. The whole house is built off a heated concrete slab. So heating can be at whatever temperature you want it to be with in any room of the house. With the heat coming from the slab set at zero. The current room temp is 22. I have used a hand gun thermo, digital thermo and analog thermo, all showing the same temp in my room.
Yes the rack has a back on it, no front. The tubs are 18litres each. The heat cord is 6m 50 watt. (Not in direct contact with the tub) but sitiuated within the routed piece of melamine about half a cm under the tub. The maximum temp the plastic tubs get up to is 26-27 with the probe thermo set at 40 (the max). Raiseing the room temp from the slab, the rack can reach 32 with the slab set at 35. And i am sleeping in this room aswell as maintaining my collection of reptiles.
I think i will ditch the cord and buy some heat mat with a greater width than the cord and higher wattage. But will heat mat in direct contact with the tubs melt them?.
Cheers. Lance.
