I came home and smelled a slight 'hot plastic' and ran into the snake room.
Everyone was fine. However one of my heat tape strips burned out. The temp was 130 on the tape and 120 at the hot end of the tub.
This was not the tub that had the thermo sensor in it so the thermostat didn't shut off.
I'm not sure how this happened.
What can I do to make my snakes safer? I've always been afraid of a flexiwatt burn out.
For right now I've unplugged my whole system while I get the new tape (it's coming tomorrow).
