[gecko]Shipping Geckos: Current Heat Packs, et cetera

[ElizabethFreer]

Hi Julie,

Just checking to see how you are packing your geckos now.  Know that at least one batch of your heat packs from RLD did not perform.  
      *    Have you gone back to him? to Superior Enterprises?
      *    Are you using only 60 hr HPs now for more even heat?

What is your current source for cardboard and for styrofoam boxes?

Recently I heard about this stuff called Insulfoam (3/4") which has a R factor of over 5.0.  One side is covered with aluminum foil.  It's available at places like Home Depot.  The fellow just cuts it to size, top, bottom, sides as a liner for all his boxes.  He says 3/4" Insulfoam is far superior to the styrofoam we get in premade styro insulated boxes!!!  I am looking for something better than the "premade" styrofoam boxes.

Elizabeth
