I don't know about their heat retention, but I highly recommend buying a HELIX temperature control system. It was one of the best reptile things I have ever purchased.

Hello

Here is a link to a discusion about our heat cable, I think you will see that most people thinks it works great

There was one gentleman that did not like the heat rope, but there was a lot more to that story.

Thanks

heat rope

Ive got a rack that has belly heat from animal plastics and it uses the heat rope routered into the bottom. I have no complaints about it at all, it does get extremely hot but if you are using a good proportional thermostat you wont have any problems. It will heat my entire rack to 88 degrees on the warm side and my snake room is constantly at 68-69 degrees all year. Im not positive who the manufacturer of the heat rope is but one of the best Green Tree Python breeders builds racks that have ezheat heat rope routered into the bottom of the racks also, and if hes trusting the rope for his neonates then I wouldnt think theres any problem.

My melamine racks were purchased from Greg Maxwell I'm pretty sure under the name CageMaster some years ago and they had the heat cable. I used the HELIX thermostat system to great effect as the heat cable must never be used without controls. It gets extremely hot. I bred many leopard geckos, but I sold them all to Tom Crutchfield back in the good old days.
Greg Maxwell has morphed into a leading authority on breeding Green Tree Pythons. He has one of the best websites of all time.

Never even heard of those other two. AP cages, racks, and overall quality can't b beat. Plus their customer service is awsome! If ya got a problem, Mark won't send you glue to solve it!

In the thread on Moonstruck Exotics I have a fuller account of my interaction. Point in short- excellent customer service when something "went wrong" (and thats where it matters.) In terms of the cage itself, I'm currently acclimating a WC papuan python in it. These snakes have the capacity to severely test a cage, and its holding up fine. That what gets my seal of approval.
