What we liked

  • + Self regulating cables limit their own heat as temperatures rise
  • + Plug-in design means no wiring or ballast needed
  • + Can be routed in custom shapes along tub bottoms

Trade-offs

  • - Check the wattage and cable length before planning your setup
  • - Self regulating is not the same as a thermostat, so still add one
