Gyrivav Brooder Plate Heated Panel for Chicks 16.5x12in Black — 180W Dual-Sided Heat, Remote & LED Timer

Designed to replace heat lamps, this brooder plate provides a stable, energy-conscious source of warmth for brooding areas and small animal shelters. Its wide 16.5" x 12" heating surface and dual-sided output spread heat uniformly so more animals share comfortable temperatures without crowding a single hot spot. User-focused controls — including a remote, clear LED readout and programmable timers — let you manage temperature and run cycles without disturbing the animals.

How quickly does this plate warm a brooder and how even is the heat?

The 180W unit warms to working temperature in about five minutes and distributes heat from both sides of the panel rather than a single concentrated source. That reduces crowding and creates a wider safety zone for chicks or ducklings.

• Dual-sided heating spreads warmth across the full 16.5" x 12" surface.
• Effective coverage for groups of chicks up to roughly 40 in a standard brooder.
• Reaches set temperature fast to reduce cold stress risk.
• Uniform heat helps animals spread out naturally, avoiding hotspots.

Can I adjust temperature and schedule without entering the coop?

Yes — the brooder plate includes a remote that operates up to 30 meters away plus an LED display on the unit for live temperature feedback. The temperature defaults to 131°F and can be set between 86°F and 167°F (30°C–75°C), while four timer modes handle cyclical operation.

• Remote control for convenient, low-disturbance adjustments.
• LED screen shows real-time temperature readings.
• Timer modes: 6, 8, 10, or 12-hour cycles for automatic on/off.
• Temperature range suitable for a variety of young poultry and small animals.

How does the plate install and stay secure in a busy barn or coop?

Installation is straightforward with options for upright placement or wall mounting; the included bracket and screws let you fasten the plate to the floor or wall to prevent tipping. The mounting arm rotates a full 360° and locks at the angle you choose so you can direct heat where it’s needed most.

• Bracket and screw kit for secure floor or wall attachment.
• 360° rotatable arm locks at chosen angle for targeted warmth.
• Anti-bite 3-meter power cord for flexible positioning.
• Simple wipe-clean panel and washable components for easy maintenance.

What safety and energy features does it offer?

The unit is a safer, lower-risk alternative to open heat lamps and hits its working temperature quickly to reduce energy waste. Built-in cycle functionality and certifications help manage power use while meeting basic safety expectations for small-animal heating devices.

• Automatic on/off cycles conserve energy and stabilize temperatures.
• FCC and UL certified components for added electrical safety.
• Fast warm-up reduces continuous high-power draw.
• Integrated short-duration LED light for night checks (auto-off after 5 minutes).

Who is this for? The Gyrivav Brooder Plate suits backyard poultry keepers, small-scale hatcheries and pet owners raising chicks, ducklings or small mammals who want a dependable, low-maintenance heat source. It’s particularly useful for people who need remote control and timed heating to reduce disruption, improve energy efficiency and create a broader, safer warmth zone than a traditional single-point heat lamp.
