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

This is a durable reptile heat mat. This is the largest i could find with a gauge on it, i love the adhesive is VERY STICKY you get one shot at sticking it!! It's Also very accurate. This gets very hot so make sure you don't toast your pets luckily my beardy like it 90- 100 degrees. This is worth the money.

Excellent product and price !!!! Rare nowadays that you get what you pay for but this time I did ..... very pleased

Great heating pad, we use it under our fake grass for our beardie

I didn't use the adhesion feature because I was not actually using it for reptiles, but for a homemade incubator for my baby sugar glider joeys that had been rejected by their mom. I was concerned if it could get warm enough to go through the thick fabric AND fleece on bottom of their little mini world. Well, it gets VERY hot (so hot that if it touched their skin I am sure it would leave a burn) but having it underneath their enclosure and with fleece on top it has been absolutely perfect. It's been running almost 100% continually for 2 months now and so far still going perfect. I will definitely buy from this company/brand again when and if I need another larger one in the future.

I got this for my 50 inch ball python's terrarium. It already has 2 stick on heating pads and I wanted to add a third with thermostat to use primarily at night. This Vivosun is so easy to use and very consistent in terms of heat.You plug it in, put the probe into the terrarium subtrate, put the heating pad under the bottom glass and then set the temperature. I found if you set a temperature at 85 degrees, it will consistently heat around 79-81 degrees. Very good.

*UPDATE* Upon further research, these heating pads are NOT designed specifically for reptiles and amphibians. It performs the same job in that it will heat up like a heating pad should, however, it doesnt stick to the glass. This is very important for animal owners to understand. This heating pad is actually made for warming soil in the process of growing plants. People place these heaters under planters to keep the soil at the correct temperature for the seeds to grow. Just buy a Zoo Med pad. It is a much better product that will last you months. When the adhesion wears off (and it will like all adhesion formulas do) use electrical tape to tape the pad to the glass or buy a new one. There is no pad that will stick forever. That product doesnt yet exist.The "3M" adhesive is garbage. I stuck it on directly to the bottom of my glass enclosure. Checked my animal the next morning expecting him to be warm but he was super cold. I check the heat pad under his enclosure and the pad was completely off and laying flat on the cabinet surface. This product is garbage, go with a Zoo Med pad instead.

Very good.

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 snake's enclosure, the LCD failed. It thankfully still works, but I can't read the display so I'm forced to check it with my laser thermometer after an hour or so. The design isn't 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 don't push it very hard but due to the design it's 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 don't 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 don't need to probe directly on the mat this won't be a problem for you. I have a glass enclosure so it is required, and needs tape to hold half the mat up.
