Herpstat is being discontinued

Went to order one and the woman on the phone said they're discontinuing them so I'm waiting for them to call me back to tell me if they have one is stock. :(

They are in the process of upgrading to a new line. The one you are interested in must be discontinued. Someone else may be able to provide further information.

Which model were you trying to get? That's a bummer.

The first one that says "sold out"

I guess I'll just have to get this one

They are discontinuing all of the current models except the Herpstat 4. The new ones that they are being replaced with have better circuits and even better prices, and grounded outlets standard.

This is a good thing :D

Just wait the new ones will be out soon. Have you contacted spyder robotics directly? If not you really should before you buy anything.

As stated they are up dating all the models to the 4s standard I believe there is a new lower end one and three middle versions and then the 4 model

it is linked on the home page...

OP email Dion and ask about the new version I am guessing it will be shipping shortly.

As others have said Herpstat is about to upgrade thier thermostats with new designs, so you may not be able to get the one you were looking for.

If you cannot wait for the new Herpstat line and need a good thermostat right now I recommend checking out the Vivariums: http://www.reptilebasics.com/ve-100

I would go with the VE-200 since the VE-100 is not a proportional thermostat.

I plan on getting my first bp either Feb 19th or April 22th (dates to upcoming shows in my area) and wanted to get things all set up right now.

The VE 200 is a great thermostat.

x2 i have this and love it!

If you need single output thermostat we still have Herpstat ND's for the time being. We have sold off the last original Herpstat. If all goes well we will have the Herpstat Intro ready for sale by the weekend. A week later we will have the new Herpstat 1 and Herpstat 2's ready to go and the Herpstat 1 Basic about a week after that. The new thermostats are sweet and you won't find the same amount of advanced features and customizability in any other thermostat on the market. Not to mention the reliability from a manufacturer thats been providing quality thermostats since 2004.

On a side note does anyone have the probe accuracy specs on the VEs it is not listed anywhere I can find the manual is no help either.

Thanks Dion!!

Awesome!!! Just in time to finish my new incubator.

Maaaan I just got my Herpstat from Dion last week.

Its wicked though, no complaints.

I guess I need to get a few more BP's! :banana:.

well this post makes me a little upset. I just bought one a month or so ago without the knowledge that they were coming out with a new model.:mad:

I have a 25$ hydrofarm and love it. Temps are always spot on and it is nicely priced.

Ditto!

New thermostats look badass! Although I've only had a snake for 4 weeks, I can't wait to start a collection. I'll definitely pick up another Herpstat down the road.

Nice work Dion.
