Exo Terra Self Regulating Heat Mat 16W

Exo Terra Terrarium Heater Mat 16w. Provide your cold-blooded pets with natural, regulated warmth using the Exo Terra Terrarium Heat Mat. This 16W mat mimics sun-warmed surfaces, creating essential thermal gradients for optimal thermoregulation, boosting metabolism, appetite, and activity. Utilizing advanced PTC Carbon Fiber technology, it offers uniform conductive heating, eliminating dangerous hotspots with built-in safety features like automatic fail-safe and self-regulation. Highly energy-efficient (>95% conversion), it serves as a crucial 24-hour primary or secondary heat source, ideal for nighttime warmth. The mat permanently adheres to terrariums for superior heat transfer. Combine with Exo Terra Basking Spots for complete heating. Ensure ample cold spots for your pets to choose their preferred temperature. Reptiles and amphibians are cold-blooded and naturally bask on sun-warmed surfaces in their habitats to regulate their body temperature. The Exo Terra Heat Mat creates a thermal gradient, mimicking the sun-heated surfaces for your reptile's comfort. The Self-regulating Heat Mat allows for uniform conductive heating, and thus eliminates concentrated hotspots, fostering optimal thermoregulation in reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. This is crucial to enhance their metabolism, appetite, digestion, and overall physical activity.The superior PTC Carbon Fiber heating technology incorporates enhanced safety features like an automatic fail-safe mechanism, rapid warm-up capabilities, and a self-regulating maximum temperature for optimal performance and safety. The Exo Terra Heat Mat is remarkably energy efficient, boasting an electrothermal conversion efficiency exceeding 95%, providing increased heat output at equivalent wattage levels.The Heat Mat serves as an optimal 24-hour primary or secondary heat source for reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. It is particularly indispensable as a nighttime heat source for various species. The Terrarium Substrate Heater permanently adheres to the terrarium, forming a solid bond for optimal heat transfer.We recommend to combine the conductive heat of our Heat Mat with the radiant infrared-A heat of our Exo Terra Basking Spots. The Solar Power Density of our Basking Spots in combination with the conductive heat of our Heat Mat, allows your reptiles to thermoregulate their body temperature to achieve an optimal temperature for enhanced activity and healthy digestion of their food items. The small portion of UVA rays of the Basking Spot, also contributes to their physiological well-being and stimulates breeding behavior.Can be used with an Exo Terra Thermostat and/or in conjunction with supplementary heat sources, catering to the specific temperature needs of high-temperature species.NOTE: It is important to leave ample cold spots, ensuring that your animals have a variety of temperature options to regulate their body temperature effectively. This enhances their well-being and contributes to a more comfortable environment.Optimal Digestion:- The conductive heat supplied by both the Exo Terra® Heat Mats and Heat Cables will allow your reptiles to thermoregulate their body temperature to achieve the optimal temperature for enhanced activity and healthy digestion of their food items. The Infrared heat radiation penetrates via the skin and will aid cell growth, wound-healing, promote the immune system, protect against UV damage, and stimulate many other biological processes. The Exo Terra® Heat Mats and Heat Cables increase the ambient temperature and provide heat gradients for thermoregulation without disturbing the animals day and night cycle.True To Nature:- Reptiles are ectotherm and thus need a specific ambient temperature, in order to thrive. The Exo Terra® In-Tank Heaters increase the ambient temperature which will allow your reptiles to reach their preferred body temperature for enhanced activity and the healthy digestion of their food items.Stimulates thermoregulation:- The Infrared heat radiation will aid cell growth, wound-healing, promote the immune system, protect against UV damage, and stimulate many other biological processes. The Exo Terra® In-Tank Heaters provide the conductive heat directly where it is needed most, making them highly energy efficient. Because the Exo Terra® In-Tank Heaters do not emit any visible light, the long wave infrared heat produced by these emitters will not disrupt the animals day and night cycle, making it an excellent 24-hour radiant heat source for reptiles and amphibians.Features:- Ideal for all glass terrariums- Conductive heat source, increases ambient temperature- Supports optimal thermoregulation in reptiles, amphibians and invertebrates- Fast warm-up and self-regulating maximum temperature- Uniform heating eliminates concentrated hotspots- Improved Safety and automatic fail-safe- Energy-efficient- Rugged design and increased lifespan- With self-adhesive backing- IPX6 water resistant- Rubber spacers included. tradeinn Bricoinn
