I just emailed the guys at Proherp but it occurred to me that people here would be good to ask as well.
I have two enclosures that are about 4x2x2 and 5x2x2 that I want to use them in. I'd like to just use a thermostat that just switches it off when the ambient temps get too high but in general I want the panel to be running full time creating a warm basking area that doesn't affect the entire enclosure. I can raise and lower the platform to get the exact temp I need but obviously if the platform has to sit two inches below the panel it's not going to work. So, first of all, are these panels suitable for this style of heating and if so what would be the right size/wattage for this job?
Thanks in advance
