Rtb Q

Where can I find a good price on a thermostat?

From prices I've seen when looking it up has been over priced in my opinion.

Have you looked at reptilebasics.com? thats where i ordered mine from, they have prices from $59-$140.. i've heard nothing but bad things about the cheap ones though.. they're usually used as a backup thermostat

Is there anything that bad about using the cheaper ones?

I wouldn't use anything less than the johnson/ranco on/off t-stats. They run about $70. The cheaper ones can be unreliable, I wouldn't trust them with my snakes.

I use a herpstat ND. On/Off, night time drop, and alarm when temps drop too low, all kinds of cool features.
