Re: Helix DBS-1000
I have 2 Helix controlling 3 different racks and they work wonderful so far. I also have the night drop adapter but I havnt used it yet. I didnt need it this season. All the snakes ovulated and bred without it. My incubator is controlled by a herpstat and my varient is less than one degree. My boaphile cage stack heat is controlled by a Ranco double thermostat. This one seems to have the biggest varient of any of them. Up to 2 degrees but the cages are so well contained it does not affect anything in a negative way.
I have not had any problems with any of them. I dont think it really matters which thermostat you use as long as you set it correctly and the probe is adheared directly to the heat source.
