Best termostat
I'm hearing mixed opinions on the best heat control unit what's your opinion?

Re: Best termostat
I'm voting for Herpstat, but it's the only proportional thermostat I've ever owned. So my answer is biased.

I have HydroFarms, VE, and Herpstat. Putting aside the HF's, my first "good" T-stats were VE. I like the look and the duller green-amber display. I also think the menu settings are easier to navigate.
Nevertheless, my second VE came with mis-alligned outlets in the back. Just skewed. It is also very hard to unplug from one of them. Last VE I'll ever buy.
The Rosy boa is now on a Herpstat, and when the the new gopher snake arrives, she will be on a Herpstat as well.

I still have my first Helix and its running great but all my other racks and incubator are all running VE200s.

Also, Customer service is great. Speaking from my experience and the many stories that I have read here on the forum.
I'm not saying the others don't have good service. I just don't recall hearing about the other T-stats.

Re: Best termostat
I voted for VE-300. I have two of them and am happy with them. I have used Ranco and Helix in the past - never had any issues with any of them. VE is just what I am currently using.

Re: Best termostat
I am using a Honeywell dc1010, not exactly a plug n' play and not intended for herp keeping, but it's as precise as you can get, and easy to configure. I love the PID function.
Any way good to hear herpstat are good because just ordered my first.
