Heating Pad on Plastic Storage Tote Container

[emmett]

Is it safe to out a Zoo Med heating mat (the one for a 1-5 gallon enclosure) on one of those Sterilite plastic tote containers?

It should be safe to use on a plastic tote.

I realize this post is a month old, but I have been using the Zoo Med Reptitherm UTH 10-20 gallon and the 30-40 gallon on plastic totes for years and have not had any issues. I also hook them up to Lutron Credenza light dimmers to regulate power output.
