REPTI ZOO Reptile Heat Panel Adjustable Temperature Reptile Heating Plate, Non-Light Heating Solution with Expanded Heating Range for Hermit Crabs/Leopard Geckos/Turtles/Snakes/Lizards

Takes a little bit to warm up on initial startup, but it's perfect for a 10g terrarium. Bought two because of this. Temperature stays consistent if room temp stays consistent.

Should have listened to the bad reviews. I wanted this because it has the temperature adjustment. Yes, it puts out heat. But it’s only 7” away from the target and it’s barely above room temperature, and it’s on max setting. Totally useless.

I love it, just what I need. First this is not an infrared radiant heat panel that heat’s surrounding surfaces!, this is a mini heater. It heats up some metal wires and blows a fan to push the heat. It makes a lil buzzing noise too. My girls tank has pvc panels on top of the mesh to keep moisture in and this will help give some airflow in her tank with some extra heat. She has an under tank heat pad but I think this will help increase her ambient heat temps. The air flow is very light, I have to lic my finger then put it under the panel to feel anything. It’s been plugged in for only a few minutes and it already has one quarter all warmed up, I have a 2x2x4. I’m going to keep an eye on it, it may end up being finicky with having to check the temp often and manually open the tank and switch it off. Im not sure if it will hold up but I hope so, it makes for a perfect setup for now. It just is basically the quality of a hand fan with some hot wires.

Radiant heat panels are great to use during cold weather or at night to keep temperatures stable. Unless you're using a very weak halogen bulb for Basking during the day with a UVB sourse, then there's no real need to have RHPs running during the daytime, you won't get anything more than a few degrees above room temp. If you live in colder climates or if your house runs cold, or if you use your AC a lot, then get a stronger Basking bulb and perhaps even a ceramic heat emitter and just run the RHP for a few hours at night.

Ive only used it a week but so far so good. I have multiple 4x2 enclosures and am trying one out for my ball python. Id recommend to cover portions of your screen lid to help catch the heat if you have a pvc w/ mesh lid or glass terrarium. Very quiet and plugs directly into my thermostat of choice for safe and efficient heating. The setup couldn't be easier. Just set it down on the warm side of your tank and twist the dial to "on". Remember that this produces dry heat so you will need to wet your enclosures more if the animals are tropical. Easily mounts inside the tank too but im lazy and just set it on top.

I like that it has a fan to distribute heat however I had to get a ceramic heat bulb because the heat panel only heats to 75° which is way too cold for my tortoise. I probably would not buy again.

It’s a nice heater. Great design. But the problem is that it won’t even keep my 20 gallon at 70 at the highest setting. Not really worth the 50 bucks I paid.

This product is of a poor quality I do not recommend it at all I personally purchased 6 of them and I wasted a lot of money half of them stoped working rather quickly.
