    Excitedly sharing my new BP Rack
    I know you guys have all seen them before and this is nothing new but I am so excited today. I went to Repticon, Columbia, SC and bought an RBI 4 tub rack. I FINALLY got the rack and thermostat I wanted and felt like sharing my excitement. It's an early birthday present. :D:D I have it set up and and am waiting to get the temps/humidity right before the boys go in.

    That is an awesome birthday present! I remember how excited I was when my boyfriend and I built my first rack.

    Since you didn't say, I am gonna guess...32 qt? They look too tall to be 28 qt.

    Looking good. I really like my VE-200, but I did order a new Herpstat 1 for my next rack to try them head to head.

    Jinx, it was suggested to me by Rich at RBI to use one of my on/off thermostats as a type of safety. Do you do this? Basically he said to set the VE200 to get the tub temp right and plug it in to the on/off t-stat, setting the on/off t-stat about three degrees higher in case the VE200 fails. Obviously both probes on the heat tape, VE plugged into the on/off and the on/off plugged into the wall.

    I have a Ranco that I will likely set up that way once I am not using it for my tub set up.

    It would not be a bad idea for a Stat with a backup basic on/off circuit built in.....
