User questions & answers

Question:	Would this be sufficient enough to heat the inside of my car in the winter months
Answer:	If you are asking about winter storage for your car to keep it from getting musty, that might work. Sort of like heat sticks for gun safes and pianos for the dampness. If your asking about living in your car, it wouldn't be warm enough for me.
Question:	House for stray cats...does this heater need to be clear of all bedding? is there a chance of fire
Answer:	I have mine in a cat house with towels and a cat bed around it. The towels touch it. It's uncomfortably hot to touch on high, but doesn't burn my hand so I felt it was safe. I've not had any issues with it so far.
Question:	Do you have to worry about this being to close to the chickens? Do you have to mount it where they cant get to
Answer:	The answer to both questions is No according to the instructions. I did place mine on a wall so the chickens don't poop on it. It sits just above their heads while roosting. It also heats objects. Also it will only heat to about 45 degrees which is the highest temp you want for chickens. If the chickens get too hot they move away from it. The panel is not hot but warm to the touch. I find it to be very safe easy to install. Haven't had -30 degree weather yet. It has been in the 20's here at night and I really do love the product. Safe for everyone.
Question:	When will the built in thermastate turn on and shut off
Answer:	I couldn’t find this information either so I emailed the company and asked. This is their reply “Thank you for your inquiry. The internal thermostat does not automatically shut the unit off or on; it only regulates the temperature of the unit to maintain 140F. The unit will ONLY shut off if it overheats to above 180F; this product must be manually turned on and off.”

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this safe to use outside in freezing cold temperatures
Answer:	We live in AZ, we only get a few days of freezing temperatures. They have worked well so far. Not sure if that helps.
Question:	Is this U.L. rated? If not, who is is tested / rated by? thanks
Answer:	No indication of UL testing. Only say Made in China. I am using it outside in a small chicken coop.
Question:	I have a custom house for outdoor cats. it is raised with spot for bulb holder to go under the floor. will 150 watt bulb heat through the wood floor
Answer:	We have one of these for this exact purpose, ours is a fully insulated dog house but for cats. It works great!
Question:	I bought the 100w and my house is 64 degrees but i need my animal cage at 78 and i can’t get the bulb to heat over 70, do i need a 150w
Answer:	Without the size and the type of walls, can even start to give you an answer. All I know is that I was expecting more heat from the 150 watt that I brought. I am using two 150 watt bulbs in a 6 ft x 8 ft green house. The bulbs go on around 35 deg F, and turns off at around 40 deg F. I do not believe the two 150 watt units and 1 100 watt light bulb can keep the temp over 32 deg F.

Product description

Amazon’s choice Brinsea Eco Glow chick brooder for warming newly hatched chicks or ducklings (ASIN B008HVM56Q) has been redesigned to be even safer, more economical and easier to clean. The new Eco Glow 20 Safety 600 chick brooder is ideal for warming up to 20 newly hatched chicks or ducklings and suitable for any waterfowl or game-bird chicks. It is also ideal for classroom hatches. This chick warmer only uses 12 watts (5% of the electricity of typical suspended poultry heat lamps) because the chicks are in contact with its warm under-surface as they would under the mother hen. The new Eco Glow 20 Safety 600 chick brooder uses a metal warming plate which evens out hot and cold spots which occur with plastic heat plates improving heat radiation. The new flared skirt design also retains more heat further reducing energy use. Unlike other chick heating plates the Brinsea Eco Glow brooders run at 12Volt from a mains transformer (supplied) – a much safer option than mains voltage chicken heating plates or heat lamps. Other features include easy height settings for a wide range of chick sizes thanks to the 4 adjustable legs, a generous 10 feet power lead for extended reach, an indicator light, Bio master antimicrobial plastics and a FREE clear cover to make cleaning as easy as possible. Replacement covers are available in a pack of 3 (ASIN B07PZHPRML). 3-Year warranty subject to registration. For brooding larger numbers of chicks see the Brinsea Eco Glow Safety 1200 (ASIN B07PW2S49F)

• Brooder for warming up to 20 newly hatched chicks or ducklings
• Safe 12 volt radiant-heated underside for producing uniform temperature and minimizing power consumption with no risk of fire
• Easy adjustable Height settings for accommodating various chick sizes
• Indicator light for confirming brooder is connected
• Durable easy to clean construction plus FREE clear plastic cover included
• No disturbing light - chicks are adjusted to a natural day/night cycle which improves weight gain and feather growth
• Suitable for up to 20 newly hatched chicks

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I use this with lovebirds
Answer:	It did not work. It was never over 75 degrees. My son moved it and broke it or I would have sent it back. It was one of the very few things I've ever bought from Amazon that did not function as advertised.
Question:	I have lost the adaptor part that plugs into the wall - how can i get just that - thank you
Answer:	I used this warmer plate for 5 chicks. It kept them quiet and warm. After they got bigger I added a heating pad beside it.
Question:	How many chicks can fit under here? Thanks
Answer:	We had six chicks, and they fit pretty good.
Question:	What are the dimensions of this item
Answer:	I don't think so. It is a tiny one. Only works for about four newborn chicks. It only warms up right underneath that orange panel about 77 degrees.

EcoGlow Brooders

Our EcoGlow chick brooders have been redesigned to be even safer, more economical and easier to clean. These highly efficient low-cost brooders are ideal for keeping newly hatched chicken, game and waterfowl warm. They are now available in 3 sizes: the EcoGlow Safety 600 suitable for up to 20 chicks, the EcoGlow Safety 1200 for up to 35 chicks and the EcoGlow 50 for up to 50 chicks. These radiant heaters are far more efficient than conventional suspended heat lamps or mains voltage chicken heating plates, as well as being much safer since they run from a 12 volt transformer.

The EcoGlow are not a light source so you won’t have to worry about your chicks’ sleeping habits and the brooder panel height can be adjusted to match chicks of different sizes from quail to goose. You can also adjust the legs so that one end is higher than the other, if desired.

Radiant Heat

Artificial radiant heat uses electromagnetic waves that are invisible to the naked eye. These waves effectively transfer heat from one object to another, and they don’t warm the air as they pass through it.

Contact brooding is a more natural way of raising chicks. Chicks can safely touch the underside of a radiant heat source, much like how they would nestle up against a mother hen’s warm belly.

Multiple Brooders

If you are interested in brooding a large number of chicks at one time, the safety features of the EcoGlow brooders allow you to place up to four units side by side.

Clear Cover

With hygiene a top priority all EcoGlow chick brooders are made of durable hygienic ABS plastics. With the purchase of an EcoGlow 600 or 1200 you will also receive a free clear cover. You can purchase clear covers for the EcoGlow 50 separately. The covers easily fit over the brooder plate and make cleaning quick and simple. Replacement covers supplied in packs of 3 are also available.

EcoGlow 600 covers part # B07PZHPRML, EcoGlow 1200 covers part # B07PZH8MLZ and EcoGlow 50 covers part # B07PX7QLFG.

The Heating Plate

Our brooders use a metal warming plate to even out hot and cold spots, which occur with plastic heat plates, and to improve heat radiation. The flared skirt design (featured on the 600 and 1200 models) retains more heat to further reduce energy use. The EcoGlows only use a fraction of the electricity of typical suspended heat lamps or mains voltage heating plates which is important when heating 24/7.

User questions & answers

Question:	So this thermo-poultry brooder the chicks walk under to stay warm right
Answer:	Obviously, you need electricity for starters.. I guess how drafty it is could be an issue. If it wasn't drafty, I would say it would be successful if you set it up correctly. The plate is what gets warm, so they gather under and above it. The area surrounding the plate does not get particularly warm. I would say 20-30 chicks would be the most I would do per heating plate, if they were in a barn. I went from a heating lamp to this, and plan to do my next batch in the barn after using this. (We usually raise them inside our house when we start them out.) It does get very cold where I live.
Question:	It doesn't seem to be keeping my chicks warm enough. They are on a draft free (not heated) room
Answer:	Yes it's a great product.
Question:	how many chicks does this work for
Answer:	I used this when we had chicks in a kid’s plastic swimming pool in our house. It worked great!
Question:	I want to set up my brooder in my horse barn. Our temperature here in Louisiana is between 72-90 degrees. Will this work for me
Answer:	Yes that is how I use it

User questions & answers

Question:	Is the perch wide enough for turkeys
Answer:	It would be ok for several, however I must caution you, mine worked for less than a week, when I wrote to explain, I had hoped for a response or help from seller. What they did was ignore me, so I’m out the cost of this roost, I would save my money. If you have a coop I would however recommend one of the panel heaters, I have one and it works excellent, it’s thermostatically controlled and works perfectly so far.
Question:	Can this be used outside, or is it best to use inside
Answer:	I don't think it can be used outside, mine is inside.
Question:	how many chickens fit on perch
Answer:	Each breed of chicken will vary from breed to breed as well as different life stages. Some breeds the large perch will accommodate 4-6 chickens, other breeds it will accommodate 3-4, so it really depends on what size your chickens are.
Question:	what about the narrow shape of the perch? it seems the shape and width of the perch would be unhealthy for chickens
Answer:	The shape and width of the K&H Thermo-Chicken Perch is ergonomically designed specifically for chickens. Chickens prefer a non-rounded perch and an oval perch is more suited to hens’ foot pads while roosting and easier is to rest. The shape is designed to give proper balance to avoid twisted keel/breast bones when roosting. All birds should always have a variety of choices in their perching area to ensure they are comfortable and resting well.

K&H Thermo-Chicken Perch

The Thermo-Chicken Perch by K&H is the perfect solution to keep your chickens from literally freezing their toes off!

When temperatures drop in the dead of winter, people commonly make the mistake of insulating the coop to a point that limits air circulation. This causes humidity to build up, which can lead to frostbite. It can also cause a buildup of ammonia gas from their droppings, which can damage the chickens' lungs. The K&H Thermo-Chicken Perch is the safe and easy method of keeping your chickens warm.

The K&H Thermo-Chicken Perch is MET listed and the temperature is preset using an internal thermostat to maintain a safe and healthy temperature for your backyard fowl friends. It warms in cold weather but never gets too warm to harm anything in your coop. That means you can plug it in and walk away knowing your feathered friends will be comfortable and warm even in the dead of winter. This product is offered in two sizes to fit any backyard brood.

K&H Believes in Safety First

Electrical Safety Listed: This product has been rigorously tested and is certified by MET Laboratories to exceed USA and Canadian electrical safety standards. Don't be deceived by electrical products that have not been tested and certified by an accredited nationally recognized testing laboratory.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be used for 2 grown chickens in an outside coop
Answer:	Hello - The nominal impedance for RG58 coax is 50 ohms. Various manufacturers indicate a range from 50 tom 52 ohms for specific cables.If you need an exact value for a particular cable, please Google the manufacturer for specs. Also, the ARRL Antenna Handbook provides good info. - tom -
Question:	Has anyone tried using this for an African Pygmy Hedgehog
Answer:	You are thinking about RG-59 coax having a 75 ohm value. While the standard dipole antenna is about 72 ohms (easily within tolerance of 50 ohm line), almost all radio coax is for a 50 ohm match. (Steve, Prime member's husband, who is an Extra Class ham.)

Answer:	Yes
Question:	Can this work as the sole heat source for day-old chicks? Or only as supplemental
Answer:	Dear Sir, Thank you for the question. This programming cable suits best for analogue Baofeng radios. The DM-5R is digital radio so it could be flashed, but you will need some extra soft ( not Chirp program). Warmest Regards, Mirkit.

K&H Thermo-Peep Heated Pad

The K&H Thermo-Peep Heated Pad is the perfect addition to any chicken coop! The K&H Thermo-Peep Heated Pads are great for use during the first stages of life for mandatory heat requirements and later when old man winter pays a visit! These pads are thermostatically controlled to turn on and off as needed to help keep your chickens warm even in sub-zero temperatures. This ensures that your chicks do not get chilled and will help prevent “pasting” to support a healthy start in life. The K&H Thermo-Peep Heated Pads also features a 5.5' cord and 18" of that cord is totally encased in steel to protect from pecking. This pad has pre-drilled holes in each corner allowing you to easily mount them using screws or wires. Using only 25 watts they are extremely energy efficient.

Testing your K&H heated pad

You'll notice that the K&H heated may not feel warm to the touch, this is normal!! The heat will dissipate into the air unless there is something on the pad or leaning against the pad.

You can test the pad by placing a large pillow on top of the pad. After about 20 minutes, feel under the pillow. It will feel warm, not hot.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I use this as the only source of heat in my coop for four week chicks. It will get into the mid thirties at night here where I live
Answer:	The pet food tray is made of a resin material.
Question:	Is this 4-Watts or 40-Watts? Description and title are different
Answer:	You can test through a UVB test equipment, but this equipment is more expensive. You can buy a UVB test card, which can be used for simple test. The difference between LED UVB and heated UVB is that as long as the lamp bead of LED is not damaged, it can produce UVB rays. Due to the half-life of mercury vapor, the aging of heated UVB bulb can only last half a year. But led UVB bulbs produce almost no heat, which you need to pay attention to.
Question:	The companies web site says not to use it with pine shavings since they are combustible, so how can I use it in my coop
Answer:	Temp gun adjust emissivity can make the measurement more accurate. The emissivity of different items can be different. They are between 0.1~1. The emissivity can be adjusted according to different items during measurement, which can make the measurement more accurate.
