Best temperature controller

[shimmer]

I have problems keeping my temps in a good range and need to know the best temperature controller avalible without costing and arm and leg.

What are your current temps? Rhacs only require normal room temperature, or temps between 68-78 degrees.

I live in oklahoma and temps vary from night and day drasticly. It can get down to 60 at night and 80 during the day. I am trying to incubate eggs and set my incubator up before my females started laying. The set up is getting to cold at night and I tried a heating pad only to find it gets to hot.

Any thermostat from www.reptilebasics.com should work just fine

If you need a thermostat for an incubator, I'd get a proportional one. The Helix model Rich sells is a good choice, as well as the Herpstat models sold by Spyder Robotics.

Yep, definitely use a thermostat for any heat source you use with your cresteds because temperatures over 80 can be fatal. Try a uth hooked up to a thermostat that comes on if temps get below 68 and you should be fine.
