Where to buy pad type engine block heaters?

I found some last winter (about the time it started getting warm again), but can't seem to find them any where now. They looked kind of like heating for your back or something, but were attached with a high temp silicone and came in wattages around 500w. Does any body know where I can get one and maybe a few smaller wattage ones? Part of my problem is that I don't even know what they're called, so it's difficult to search for them. If you even know what to call it, that would help me out a bunch. I did a search on here because I thought I remembered seeing them mentioned, but the first two or three pages of results only turned up bolt on block types, inline water types and oil plug types. Is there some reason nobody uses these?

My ultimate goal is to have one on the oil, water, trans, and front and rear diffs. All that should stay under 1000w.
