    Thermostat question

    Was wondering how many heating pads you could run off of the Hydofarm thermostat? Sorry if this is a dumb question! I was thinking maybe a power strip and plugging all the heat pads into that. Then into the thermostat.

    I'm running 2 pieces of flexwatt (2 feet each, 11 inches wide) off of one with a powerbar. It works. Temps can vary since you're only using one probe, so make sure you're monitoring them. I love the hydrofarms. Cheap, effective.


    (I activated the sensors first time posting. I didn't cuss, guys.)
