Flexwatt - Cord Set for Flexwatt Heat Tape - 6 foot white cord with pre-stripped ends to be used for a cord set for the Flexwatt Heat Tape.
This is so it can work lol...

Flexwatt - Metal Connectors
Extra metal connectors for Flexwatt. Price each. You need two for each Flexwatt hook up.
I connect this to the tape and the cord correct?

Reptile Basics is a good one and their prices are great. They ship fast too, often same day. I've found bean farm to a bit more expensive but they are also very good.

The list I gave you is all I need right?
I use the dimmer to adjust the temp.?

Dimmers don't directly adjust temperature, they adjust the amount of wattage/current running to the heating element. The resulting temperature will be a factor of the amount of electricity going to the heating element and the room temperature. Since room temperatures do fluctuate, I think it is best to use some sort of thermostat to control the actual temperature.
