Sorry, no cigar. Putting a source of ignition (110 ac) in proximity to a fuel
source isn't where I wanted to be.

But thanks for trying.

shared these priceless pearls of wisdom:

-("Jim Weir" wrote)
- Another thought is to put some sort of oven pan with a mat of some sort
-that
- would let the gasoline evaporate slowly from under the mat. The problem
-is
- finding a nonflammable mat that gasoline will not attack chemically.
-
-
-Pet store (or a garage sale) buy a lizard heating rock. $10.
-
-Put the flat rock UNDER, maybe a large brownie pan, and insulate around the
-rock.
-
-We used a 2" thick piece of rigid pink insulation and cut out the shape of
-the rock. Rock fit flush in the hole. Then we also put another piece of
-rigid pink UNDER the rock, So now the rock/insulation layer is sandwiched
-between a solid piece of 2" insulation on the bottom and the container on
-top.
-
-The rock should be upside-down in the insulation hole to mate up with the
-bottom of whatever you're using as a drip pan.
-
-Run a couple of bands of duct tape around the pink edges for that "finished"
-look and you're all set.
-
-For us it was an aquarium for the lizard (anole) brought home from school at
-the end of the year, by the 3rd grade niece. Kept that sucker alive for 2
-years.

-
-You know, any small heating pad would work in this setup. I had a waterbed
-heater that I kept for years after the bed had been thrown away. Used the
-pad all the time. Gave the pad to my sister a while back, haven't seen it
-since.
-
-Or ...a can of yellow foam insulation is $2.95 - $3.95 ...and it's fun to
-play with. Wear latex gloves because that stuff turns your hands black,
-before it hardens.
-
-Whatever you choose, just separate the heating thing from the thermal mass
-pan thing.
-
-Good luck.
