Proportional T-Stat

I know this might be an obvious question... But I can't figure it out for the life of me :(. What does it mean when a T-STAT is proportional?

here you go, one of the best stats imo,

the dbs-1000 is easy to setup and use.

proportional stats constantly adjust the power level to the heat source to maintain set temps.

stats like ranco and johnson are on/off. they reach setpoint and turn off completely.

the proportionals reach setpoint and trickle power to keep the temp right there.

for me and my setups, the deliver very steady and reliable temps 24/7.

my advice is to buy it here

dion makes the stats and will sell directly to you. why not go to the source for a product?

I will definitely get it from spyder!

Is buying direct any cheaper or not really?

Even if its MORE buying direct (which its not), the chance of me having to wait a month to get a product delivered from MGR would be worth paying MORE from Dion directly. That's just me...

I was bored...here ya go:

Direct from Spyder:
109.00 + 6.00 s/h = $115.00

From our favorite middleman:
107.99 + 9.95 = $117.94

You do the math?

We just bought the Herpstat Pro directly from Dion...I think we had it in our hot little hands within 36 hours of ordering. Dion is very cool and we love his product!

I think MGReptiles has it listed for like 9 bucks less, but that's not enough of a difference for us, especially with the insanely fast service we got directly from Dion. =)
