    Thanks! =) I am going to get a VE-100 thermostat. I'm getting everything from reptile basics. I have an enclosure already...I have almost everything except for the most important things which is the heat. So of course I would have to wait to get the snake lol.

    I would go with the VE-200 as it is a proportional thermostat... which is much better than the non-proportional thermostats like the VE-100, hydrofarm, etc.

    I prefer herpstats, but the VE's are very good as well

    I tend to agree that proportional units are more flexible in the long run. On/off units under some conditions (cool ambient room temps and higher wattage heaters used in conduction with thin walled enclosures) can generate unexpectantly large temp swings. I too like the herpstats and the intro proportional unit is only slightly ($14.01) more than the VE100.
