Gets maybe a tad hot, even outdoors when I have my animal ambassadors out. Not really a problem but snakes are dumb and they will cook themselves on hot spot. If this is under tank with some decent substrate it's not a problem.
I found that another external heat source (such as a heat buddy) will warm this and let it transmit to the glass so I don't have to keep the pad on non-stop. If you live somewhere and plan for emergencies with your animals this really becomes relevant in a days-on power outage during freezing temps.
For anyone that cares I ran this off a mid-sized Bluetti under a canopy tent for hours on Halloween with zero issues and very respectable draw (~15w). The snakes were happy and the tarantula next door enjoyed the radiant warmth too.
I do wish it came with a switch and some sort of controllable cutoff temp, but these are very minor wishes. My unit was heated on both sides and had zero issues with the adhesive.
Will buy 4+ more for all of my main displays.
