Not a problem Marius.

The blue one is most properly 27 watt then, not sure.
You must not space them to close to each other or the wire get hotter than normal.


Also attached a thermastat to the heating wire, for your safety.

What size is your room?

It will all depend on the size of the room you have the spiders in and whether the room has a door.

Ok, so this is for both Marius and Ben. (Double tap) noob

Reptile City.co.za
Pads & Cables

Ben, you can get heating cable from Reptile city.
There is a couple of online shops that should be able to buy from and get it shipped to you.

Marius, there is your color verses your Watts of the cables.
Scroll down to the middle of the page for there selection.

Hi Guys

the little i know is that I often use the 20watt cable and seems to work fine for me in the cabinets
I cut a groove with a 3mm kerf ( term for blade width) and 4mm deep and 20 mm apart at the back side of the cabinet
This way the tarantula can regulate it 's own body temp if it is to hot it moves away ,gets cold move closer

Have not lost any T 's this way

Do not profess to know much but is working for me so far

I have also opted for putting all my t's that is in the spice containers in a glass enclosure in the cabinet and it works well

The article is on the forum - cabinets by your's truly
