Best website to purchase Ranco thermostats?
I currently use the ReptiTemp 500R for my UTHs.
I stack my tubs but sometime this week or next week I'll be getting a rack for the Ball pythons with flexwatt as belly heat so I don't know if the ReptiTemp will be safe enough to use to control the flexwatt.
What's the best place on the web to purchase a Ranco? And how well does the Ranco work?
I know some people on here have it and love it but I would like some other opinions on it.
Also, are there any other thermostats that would be pretty good at controlling the heat on flexwatt but aren't too pricey?

Re: Best website to purchase Ranco thermostats?
I just googled and found this: http://www.climatedoctors.com/items/...?itemid=429705 Way cheaper than I thought they'd be. I'm gonna save up for a Herpstat. $110. Proportional, though, so it's worth it.
I've a Reptitemp on Flexwatt and I occasionally get some Fluctuation. Nothing dangerous, though, as I check on them several times a day out of boredom. Others do just fine and I'd say don't worry, but I'm looking to move up, myself!
Most questions are answered here.

Reptile Basics for sure.
If I can help it I don't buy from anyone but Rich at RB. I own a double and single ranco from him

Jeff Ronne at Boaphile sells them too. I think they will cost about the same either way. One seller's price includes shipping, one doesn't...

You can never go wrong with RBI! Rich pre-wires them however you want, grounded, ungrounded and he even makes a plastic stand you can buy to mount it on.
