Need help deciding between two thermostat and mat setup
I was set on a ZooMed mat and thermostat set up, the thermostat being a Zoo Med Repti-Temp 500R Remote Sensor Thermostat with the regular ZooMed mats, but now after being told by many people that this was a good setup i'm being told its not. So now my other option is a Hydrofarm MTPRTC Digital Thermostat with flukers mats.
I'm just looking for people opinions and experiences with either set up. I've been looking into herpstats so this isn't a forever thing just something for the mean time. The hydrofarm is the cheaper of the too but it has great reviews but so does the ZooMed (my original choice) I just want to hear from you guys.

I actually have a Hydrofarm hooked up to a Fluckers uth right now on a temporary tub. I have to say that both products are working very well and i would suggest them. I do also have two ZooMed uth and they also have worked very well for me. I would suggest to put foil on the sticky side of the uth and then tape it in place. This way you can remove it without damaging it.
I also have a Herpstat1 and absolutely love it. I'm going to get the Herstat4 whenever my new cages arrive.
