- 3-Level Adjustable Thermostat: Three precise heat settings — Low (35–40°C), Medium (40–45°C), and High (45–50°C) — let you dial in the ideal temperature for your specific reptile species.
- Auto-Timer Function: Set automatic shutoff at 6, 12, or 18 hours — or disable the timer for continuous operation. Ideal for maintaining consistent overnight temperatures.
- Advanced 7-Layer Safety Construction: Built with waterproof top and bottom films, flame-retardant conductive fiber fabric, and premium carbon fiber heating elements for even heat distribution, durability, and electrical insulation.

⚠ Important Usage Guidelines
- Place the heating mat outside and underneath the glass terrarium — never inside or in direct contact with your pet.
- Lay 2–3 cm (0.7"–1.2") of substrate at the bottom of the terrarium so your pet can self-regulate its exposure to warmth.
- If the indicator light flashes and turns off, your power source output is insufficient — switch to a higher-output USB adapter or power bank.
- Avoid prolonged moisture exposure. If the mat gets wet, allow it to dry completely before reuse.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Can I use this USB reptile heating pad inside the terrarium?
A: No. This heating pad is designed for indirect heating via thermal conduction and must be placed under the terrarium, not inside it or in direct contact with your pet. Always monitor temperature with a digital thermometer and use 2–3 cm of substrate inside the enclosure.
Q: What USB power source do I need for this reptile heating mat?
A: You need a USB power source rated at 5V / 2A or higher. A standard USB wall adapter or a high-output power bank both work. If the indicator light flashes and shuts off, your power source is underpowered — use a higher-output adapter.
Q: Which size heating pad should I choose for my reptile enclosure?
A: Select based on your enclosure size: the Small (10×20 cm / 4W) suits nano tanks and small hatchling setups; the Medium (13×23 cm / 7W) works for standard small terrariums; and the Large (18×28 cm / 9W) is ideal for medium-sized enclosures housing adult geckos, snakes, or turtles.
Q: Does this heating pad have an automatic shutoff timer?
A: Yes! The built-in timer offers three automatic shutoff options: 6 hours, 12 hours, or 18 hours. You can also disable the timer entirely for continuous heating until you manually turn it off.
Q: Is the carbon fiber reptile heating pad waterproof?
A: The pad features waterproof top and bottom protective films as part of its 7-layer construction. However, it is not intended for submersion. If it becomes wet, allow it to dry completely before plugging it back in.
