VIVOSUN Reptile Heating Pad 8x12 Inch with Thermostat Combo Under Tank Terrarium Heating Mat Waterproof for Turtles, Lizards, Frogs, and Other Reptiles

Although the thermostat is very easy to use it’s temperature reading is off 8-10 degrees Fahrenheit. I don’t think you can reset the reading but just make sure you check the temperature with a laser gauge.

Perfect temperature when controlled with a thermostat. It really maintains the proper temperature that we have it set for.

Worked great for about a month-ish with only a 2° variation which is pretty good at this price. Then as I went to change the setting as I do every morning to day/night cycle my snakes enclosure, the LCD failed. It thankfully still works, but I cant read the display so Im forced to check it with my laser thermometer after an hour or so. The design isnt well thought out at it uses membrane type buttons and they just put a flexible cover over top of the entire unit which pushes against the screen. I dont push it very hard but due to the design its built in a way that almost guarantees it will fail if you have to change the settings daily. If you plan on using this one I highly suggest a seperate thermostat controller so you dont have to touch the thermostat itself. More cables and space needed to do so but if temperatures need changed at any point its absolutely necessary with this thermostat. Also the heat pad adheres good and after the first 5 hours it will stay at the temp you want very well. It has a hard time adhering to the spot that you put the temp probe. I had to add tape to the spot with the probe as it fell of the first day. If you have a setup where you dont need to probe directly on the mat this wont be a problem for you. I have a glass enclosure so it is required, and needs tape to hold half the mat up.

If I could give this a 0 I would. The heating pad has 3m that does not stick to the aquarium. I have a roach colony for lizards that need to be at a constant 90 degrees but the temperature control that is supposed to be compatible with this wont go above 66 degrees. I set it to 90 and nothing. I am looking for a new one. Dont waste your money. I have had this for a little over a month.

Perfect size and heats well. No issues so far

I use these on the warm side of all my snake tanks currently. They work well enough for what I need. I havent had any problems with them holding temp.

I paired this heating mat along with the Vivosun heating controller. Together they are working great. I use these for under my new starter seedlings in my mini greenhouse to help keep the soil at 25C. Keep them happy and healthy. I will also be using this under my cloning tray when I take cuttings to get them to root faster!

Produit simple a utilise. Le seul point faible es quil es tres petit. 24 pouce devrais etre dans les dimension possible. Pas certain a propos du pad collant non plus. Chaleur... colle... pas certain mais peut etre une utilité inconnue !

I placed this heater under my leopard geckos hot hide and set it to 90 degrees. I gave this product two stars because it heats up fast and seems even enough. However, as you can see, the thermostat is about 30 degrees off from what the actual heat of the pad is. 111 degrees would fry my poor little Leo. So it’s now set at 65 degrees and we will see how that goes…

My iguana loves it I don’t need the hot rock no more this is better
