Saturday I pick up a new addition! A little hognose. I am planning on keeping him in a rub ontop of my royals viv and I was wondering if I could plug the heat mat into my royals pulse stat with an extension lead to save on buying a new stat? The viv is heated by a ceramic. Obviously I would need to move the mat around a bit to get the right temp with only having 1 probe but would this work? Thanks!

My rack where I have 5 RUB's per shelf I have one stat per shelf - this isn't ideal but it would be astronomical costs to cover a stat pet RUB, it's not so bad when you're working with multiple identical containers and my probe is attached to my heat cable not in a certain RUB.

Ah yes. So you could physically do it but you shouldn't for safety. Ill borrow my cresties mat and stat till I order one then! Seeing as his hasn't even clicked on in about a month I'm sure he won't mind!

What if the heat source where the probe was failed,and the mat in the rub just stayed on.

Why is that? I had set it up and worked fine I was asking incase there would be a future problem like something blowing

The heat sources need to be the same to use the same stat and even then I personally wouldn't recommend it.
