BUT what is the value of the reptiles it is taking care of??

I have several different t-stats. Helix is ok but a pain to "see".
I have several VE200s and love them. Easy to set up and see at a glance:gj:
Eventually I will have nothing but VE200s, if I win the lotto and get rich, Rich will get rich too:rofl::rofl::rofl:

Another, unrelated question: I'm currently running 7 separate under tank heating pads. I'd guess they're 24 watts each. If I switch to 20 feet of 4" 8 watt, can anyone tell if that would lower or raise my electricity usage? I ask because I split the electricity bill with my landlord and would rather they not see a spike in usage. lol

For what you are thinking they have to produce the exact same temp at a given power level. I have not noticed this to be the case in some cases (exoterra to zoo med ) is dramatically different. And if you have an ultratherm in there you have even more issues. They really need to be the exact same to work off a single controller.
