Posted - 22/11/2009 : 23:37:06 If the heat mats are gonna be next to each other, running as one then I wouldn't bother cutting the cables. I'd just put a double adapter onto the stat and plug them both onto that. There's no chance of an overheat then either.
What size are they at the moment? and out of curiosity, why do you need a larger one? |
