Hey there

you should join http://scorpionforum.darkbb.com/forum.htm

anyways, I don’t use a heat mat
I use a heat lamp with a heat bulb because I used a heat mat before and it didn’t work so well for me.
There is probably a difference, but the rainforest mat seems like it’d work for an emperor scorpion since they’re a forest species.
Just make sure to play the mat on the side/back of the tank and not on the bottom.
Emperor scorpions tend to bury into the ground when it’s hot, so putting it on the bottom might just end up harming it.

I’ve had heat mats and in my opinion they all suck. Get a heat lamp like Dualll said.
