According to Hop&Grape..

1 jar 15w 18.5cm x 18.5cm,
2 jar 20w 18.5cm x 37cm
4 jar 30w 37cm x 37cm
5 gallon 25w 31cm x 31cm

But that is for 'Heat Trays' not sure if it's the same as heat pads.

yeah sorry. i meant the tray. thought they were the same thing. so how does this convert in lehmans terms to cost. all 4 quarters of the tray heat up regardless of there being a dj on one or not

30watts in laymans terms? = Not much.

Hi Guys
A100 watt light bulb will run for 10 hours for 1 unit of electricity which is about 16 or 18 pence.
Roughly a 30watt pad will run for 33hours for 1 unit if it has a thermostate it will run for longer for 1 unit.


I hope this will help
