I used heat strips, no reason why over cable, exept the fact ive always used before

as for the boxes, i use conticos for the small and medium and im making an adult corn rack at the moment and gonna be using 50litre really useful, as they are that bit bigger than the contico large, i like them cause i haven't got to be as exact with the measurements height wise and the adult corns shouldn't be able to lift the really useful box lids, but i cant say the same for the large conticos, if the boxes fit tight against the lids that shouldn't be a problem

I use strips as I have always used strips. I know some people which are using cables and find no problem with them and I have used them before and have found them ok. But I would recommend using a stat with both as they both can get really hot
