Hi all,
Just wanted to find out i was fixing a thermostat in a fridge the other day and i thought why can i not use the heating wire from the fridge to heat my tanks..???
I spoke to the guy whom i got the fridge parts from and told him what i wanna do with it and he said it should be fine, but im just assuming he knows nothing about reptile keeping so i thought i would come ask here.
For those who dont know the element is inside the PVC insulation and the PVC gets warm.
And with the thermostat its range is from 0 - 40 degrees.
The guy at the store said i could get it for R40 a kg of the stuff and i was like wow bargain......
Its really easy to wire up and draws almost no power, so i could easily put 30 of these things on 1 circuit.
So i would like to know has anyone tried to use this wire before??
Any concerns?
Let me know
