You only need to ask once, and that saves us writing loads of duplicate replies.

See the lizard section !

yes you can but all the mats should be the same size so as not to have some getting warmer than others. basically each mat will have a wattage,you'll be able to see it on each mat, so say youve got 4 x 12 watt matts that equals 48watts so any thermostat over that can handle them i.e a 100watt mat stat will do. hope that helps.

Exactly what i was going to say!

I was running 5 x 14 watts mats off a 100 watt mat stat and they worked fine, just have a thermometer in each viv to keep an eye on the temps.
