ZooMed Habitat Heater used outside

[Roxie]

I want to use the Habitat heater outside this year, but not sure about this product. Frank has a half plastic garbage can hide and he burrows down a bit, but it is reinforced so he can't get too far. The lows are dipping into the high 50's next week and I thought I would try the heater. I will not be raining, and humidity should be less than 90%, in accordance with the safety precautions. I was just going to lay it on top of the dirt.

has anyone used this outside?

HA! HAHA! I wish it was the high fifties......

Either way, I wouldn't be worried about it, except I would get a thermostat to regulate it.

I don't know that kind of heater. However, deff use a thermostat and I would be very careful that the torts can't break it and that the torts or rain can not get the connection wet.

OK, highs in high 40's. Very rare for FL in Oct
