Radiant heat panel

What size or watts do most of you use in your night box?

I use the 80 watt RHP from http://www.reptilebasics.com/80-watt-radiant-heat-panel over a Kane 78 watt heat mat. The combo of the two work very well together and in a 4x4 box it leaves more than half the floor space for the tortoise to be off the heat, but still in the warm box.

Thanks Tom. Can you post the link to your night box design?

Does it go on the ceiling or the floor

The RHP goes on the ceiling and the Kane mat goes on the floor.
