G,Day!
Just wondering about peoples view on 'Radiant Heating' v 'Ceramic Bulb'.
(always used with a thermostat obviously)
I am at the beginning of transforming this balinese cabinet into a tank for a Centralian Python.
I have used 'Ceramic Bulb' heating with my last snake, a Darwin python, but the 'Radiant Heating'
panels have caught my attention.
Just wondering peoples views on them versus heat bulbs.
From what I can tell:
-'Radiant Heating' will be more expensive to set up but cheaper in the long run as you never replace them.
-They are a sleeker design therefore hidden as appose to a caged bulb you can see.
At this point I plan to put two(in case one fails) small 'radiant heating' panels in the top left corner of the tank, although I welcome comments and thoughts.
-Anyone using them now with any tips or cons?
-Anyone know the best 'radiant heat' panels to use or avoid?
Tomorrow I begin sealing all 'gaps/cracks' in the cabinet and maybe taking off the wooden cage backing (as it needs to be replaced with a solid board. So the heating is a long way off but need help making a decision...
<Hmm, Ceramic or Radiant>
I will be posting pictures as I go on my profile...
Please feel free to pop by with any thoughts or questions
Or just to follow my progress!
