BN-LINK Durable Reptile Heating Pad 8" X 12" with Digital Thermostat Under Tank Heater Terrarium Warmer Combo Set for Turtles, Lizards, Frogs, and Other Reptiles

Works great for our tank that needs heating. We have it on the back wall because it works better than the bottom, love this product! Keeps the tank several degrees warmer than room temp.

These small heat pads are good for 20 -40gallon enclosures. They do not emit an exaggerated amount of heat so I like that about them as the heat can’t be adjusted. So har they have not overheated to the point my reptile will suffer any burns.

I thought I was buying a heating pad, basically what you're buying is a controller that comes with a free heating pad. I can't believe the price of this, I would expect at least $50. Especially considering that it is for pet use.It is a temperature controller, displays current temp inside tank, and has a separate permanently wired temp sensor that sticks to the inside of the tank with a suction cup. The suction cup works very well, even after repeated removals. The heating pad plugs in separately to a 110v plug on the controller. You can use any 110v device, I would only recommend using a heater or heat lamp though lol. I suppose you could wire it into a stereo, and when the temperature gets above your set point it starts playing Jimi Hendrix. The problem with that, is you then have to figure out whether or not your reptile is more of a country fan, or a rock fan..The heating pad is completely covered with adhesive on one side for sticking to OUTSIDE of the tank.It's a lot larger than I expected, although I didn't look too see what size I was buying - I just expected smaller.The instructions say multiple times to place on the outside of the tank, so be aware of that. Also, it is absolutely not supposed to be placed on wood or anything other than glass, according to the instructions, so be aware of that.After reading the instructions, and being aware of that, I decided to just set it under the tank, on top of wood. It wasn't even real wood. It was crap particle board. Maybe the glue in the particle board increased its thermal properties, but I doubt it. I think it's more probable that the heating pad doesn't get hot enough to catch wood on fire.I didn't stick it to the tank because we are replacing the tank in a month. I then decided to move the tank and stick it to the side of the tank temporarily, so I removed a half inch or so (ended up being about an inch) of the adhesive backing all the way around the edge of the heating pad and stuck it to the glass so that I can remove it, and the rest of the adhesive is unused for the new tank.If this is not an absolute permanent fixture on your tank, I would advise sticking it to the tank using only a little bit of the adhesive (by removing small sections of at the adhesive backing to expose only small areas of adhesive). You will never get this off the tank in reusable condition if you use the entire adhesive sheet. I probably exposed too much adhesive. It's going to be a pain when I go to remove it.

Works super well! Has really helped up the ambient temperature in my Ball Python enclosure. One thing to keep in mind is that you NEEEEEEEEED to pair this with a thermostat!!!! If you do not do this, your reptile WILL get burned! This thing gets really really hot if it's not given a thermostat! Otherwise, it has been perfect and has done exactly what I needed it to! Overall a good budget option, especially if you just need a pad to put under the warm hide!

I like these heat pad and thermostat combos a lot, I have several for my ball python enclosures. They are better quality and significantly cheaper than what was available at my local big box pet store as well! Love these.

I got this for our leo geko. Wasn't paying attention when I got this and upon opening it realized it doesn't have a temperature control switch. That's on me I should have looked at it better but needed something ASAP. I attached it to the bottom of her terrarium and it stays at a nice temperature for her, she enjoys it and is often asleep on top of the area, she moves to another little hiding spot when she needs to cool off. I was reading instructions on the box about the adhesive which was from 3M so I thought it was really going to stick once placed. I was wrong, yes the glass was clean, yes I pressed the heater on firmly, but while I was cleaning the terrarium I noticed that the heater was coming off and had to try and reattach it. I was kinda surprised because the box read as if once this thing is on its never coming off. It's not a bad heater, but next time I will go with something else.

Works like a champ. No problems!

My daughter has a ball python snake. She needs this to keep him alive. It does an excellent job at regulating temperature. And it's very easy to use. We would buy it again if this one wears out.
