Repti-Zoo Heat Cable 80W – heating cable

This 80W heating cable from Repti-Zoo is intended for keepers who heat terrariums with a flexible, cable-type heat source. Its 9 m heated section and 10.5 m total length allow it to cover a wide area, and the silicone jacket makes it easier to route and position.

Why it matters

• Silicone jacket: the thick silicone coating is described as waterproof and resistant to mechanical damage, which suits setups where the cable may be moved or exposed to moisture.
• Temperature control: the cable is designed to connect to temperature regulation devices, so its output can be managed with a thermostat or controller.
• Built-in resistor: according to the manufacturer, a resistor is fitted to reduce the electromagnetic field emitted by the cable, which is a specific feature compared with cables that lack this component.
• End terminal: a large crimp terminal at the end of the cable is included, which the manufacturer links to more consistent heating and long-term reliable operation.

What it works with

The cable is listed in the terrarium heating category and is suited to enclosures that need a continuous heat source connected to a regulator. Its 80W rating and 9 m heated section point to use in larger terrariums or in setups where heat must be spread over a longer area. Confirm that your controller and enclosure layout match the cable length and power rating before installation.
