Help with thermostat!!
I currently have one ball python and need a thermostat but cant seem to find anything on amazon or ebay. I don't want anything fancy just something to do the job.. They have these cheap things on Ebay, they don look good to me what do you guy's think?

Here are some good thermostats:
Budget: http://www.amazon.com/Hydrofarm-MTPR.../dp/B000NZZG3S
Mid-Range: http://www.reptilebasics.com/ranco-etc-111000-pre-wired
Best: http://spyderrobotics.com/home/products.html
Get the best thermostat you can afford. There is a massive difference on quality/safety in-between each of the 3 thermostats I listed above.

Do not skimp on a thermostat. It's one of the most important, if not the most important pieces of equipment you will by for your animal.
Personally I really like herpstats.

Re: Help with thermostat!!
Thanks guys, I seen the hydrofarm but didn't know if I could use it with the snake. I think I will give that a try. I am not skimping, But i am definitely not going to spend a ton of money on a herpstat when I can not afford it.

Start saving for a better unit. The hydrofarm won't last forever. Mine died after three months.

Thanks I have been looking since I started the thread and for my budge/ reviews I have found, I think I will the hydrofarm. If need be in the future I can always upgrade when I come into more money.

Re: Help with thermostat!!
Hydrofarm is working well for me, and I'm hoping it will last a long time. Maybe it will...I only run it at half throttle managing fairly cool temps.
