How many heat mats can you attatch to this?

If it is the 500 watts one, only one plug. If it is the 1000, you'll have two plugs.

It only has one plug, but you can use up to 500 watt's worth (check the wattage on the mats' packaging). You don't want to plug more than one extension cord into the unit, though, and the shorter the cord, the better.

I don't know. It might be expensive because the electricity would be on constantly. Also, I think there are HeatTrak mats with thermostats that turn off the mat when a certain temperature is reached. This would be more cost effective. Your best bet would be to contact the manufacturer to see if this is a possibility.

You will need to move the pads to the new area. There is no ability to connect more than 2 pads at a time.

One mat. Checked it out at my home. But it only lasted 2 trips. It fell apart super fast. And I had to throw it away after a trip to the beach. I wouldn't buy again.

By my calculations you will need about 180 square feet of the fat mat I would recommend looking for the larger packages of fat mat this stuff works really well though make sure you apply it with the roller and in a warm environment best of luck personally I would start with (2) 100 square foot packs

I have this mat on a wood floor. It is connected to a second mat. They do not slip. They are heavy. Those using it are 70 a 165. They do dance and gymnastics in it. One mat is not enough to cover what they like to do.

I would expect to need to power the independently, with individual thermostats. That said, it really depends on the power capabilities of the thermostat vs the power requirements of the heating mats. As long as the thermostat is rated for more watts than the attached matts are drawing then you will be fine, but most of then are not designed to run more than a single matt. Also you would run the risk of one matt being hotter than others and burning your seedlings, as you only get one heat probe per thermostat.

Yes, if you plug the 2 heating devices into a power strip and plug the power strip into the Digital Thermostat's AC output it will work just fine. I would watch how many you use this way, the Thermostat has a limit on the amount of power it will handle. (amps / amperage) (or it may be listed in watts) Just add up the total power the mats use and ensure it is less than the rated maximum for the thermostat. I successfully use it with 2 heating pads this way and I even moved the thermostat from one set of plants to another to check that they are even, and there has been no difference.

I have only used two kits with no problem. I suppose you could use four kits but that's a bit of an over kill.

Not if you use to many layers. ONe or two should be sufficient. I plan on doing it this spring.

Barry I cannot give an exact number but there has to be at least 20 if not more. They are included with the kit. And you will use them all.

You can get a set which is 2 front mats. You can also get a set of 4 which includes the front and back

I gave it as a gift so I don't know how many track pieces. I ended up mounting it to a board and gluing them down. My grandson does not use a mat with his.

I would say up to six if you warm it up first to help it flow and use a small shoe polish brush like I do or one of those kitchen basting brushes to help get the stuff into the seams.

How many would you need? I'm not sure, but I can check with the manufacturer.

It depends on the size of the pieces. Small pieces you can probably do about 25 at a time.

Haven't used it around heat. Sorry but I doubt it would be a good idea. Soldering might not be a good idea on top of this mat. (Just my 2 cents)
