No, there are no currently marketed heat mats (or heat rocks) with a built in user-controlled thermostat.

There is one heat rock that claims to have a built-in thermostat, but it does heat up to 110 degrees fahrenheit (and is designed to cut out if the rock reaches 130 degrees - yeah, that's great, it's already brain-damaged or killed my reptile, cheers) ... and this temperature cannot be lowered or changed by the user unless you plug it into a conventional thermostat.

The only heating equipment I know of that come with a built in user-can-set-the-temperature thermostat are the reptile radiators and AHS units.

Hold up everyone. Youngy is the same idiot who posted this recently...

Urgant help needed for snake

Have you not learnt anything yet Youngy. YOU NEED A STAT!!! aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

After reading your other thread it's clear to see you don't deserve to be keeping reptiles, or any other pet for that matter. Do your animals a favour and give them to someone who gives a toss and can care for them properly!!!

Strong words, but your dead right. When i got my first snake i wouldnt have drempt of keeping him without a stat. Anyone that does this should try laying on a radiator and see how their skin looks after a few hours! Sick!

Yeah the shop lied. In a glass tank you will end up with a cracked tank and a burnt or cut snake to be honest. Go on ebay and you can get a stat for less than £20.

Read through the other thread (as posted) and you'll see why my words were so strong.

I apologise if I have offended anyone, but after reading Youngy's last thread I was sickened!!
