i used "people" heating pads inside iZ's enclosure (and now in his room) ... i set them on low and wrap a lightweight towel/cloth around them.... (to keep the heating pad's cover safe from claws) .... keep in mind that they are NOT going to raise the temp of the enclosure .... they are merely to provide an extra warm spot for chilly times ..... now that iZ is a BIG boy ... i have them on his basking shelves + branches IN ADDITION to basking lights AND cooler spots ....
we're in IOWA and even with a warmer light aimed at his branch (when he comes out of his room for social time), it gets chillier than his room ... so he has the option of laying on the heating pad ....
i wonder ... since your ig is still small, if one of those "baby-wipes" warmers would work for you better??? (look in the infant dept. .....)

hope this helps .....

happy igging!
