    Does the Herpstat 2 control the temp of the heat tape or the ambient temp.?

    I will be heating a styrofoam ice chest with UTH (taped on the inside of it) and was wondering how exactly the thermostat will control the heat. Does it sense the ambient temp and if it is above the desired temp. will it lessen the volt/watt output? Or does it only take the temp. of the UTH itself? I just don't want to create an oven for my animals.
