Unless that has two probes to control both devices you should bring it back and get one for each. Otherwise one is always going to be either too cold or too hot.
No it doesn't. It says that it includes a sensor cable. Singular not plural. It may control two devices at once but that doesn't mean it will work well for two different types of devices. If it's just used for one thing there shouldn't be a problem but there are other devices that would be cheaper to do the same job.
Ya it doesn't have temp sensors... only one. But it does have 2 spots to plug 2 different uth... in my opinion is useless because I can control one cage but i will be pretty much guessing about the second cage. Not what I want. I will return it and try to find something I but cheaper. At the mean time I bought 2 more hides for them

It'd work so long as what you're plugging in are exactly the same, like heat tape that's the same length, and setup exactly the same on duplicate cages.
If the temp in the room is relatively stable, a simple rheostat if you monitor the temp would be a cheap solution until you can get something like that hydrofarm taylor linked earlier. Light dimmers from home improvement stores are only like 10$. Not perfect but far better than an uncontrolled uth.
Yes that's what the guy at the store told me. I still think i can find something a bit cheaper.
How can I make a Light Dimmer work in this case? Foxton.
I do have 2 exact setups for the heat tape, same size, same spot on each cage.
I really appreciate the help. Thank you very much.

Plug the uth in and then 'dim' it with the light dimmer until it reaches the right temperature. It won't do well if your room temp fluctuates a lot but it should provide a stable base. (something like this)
Quick update. I purchased 2 light Dimmer switches and I got them hooked up on the cages. The temperature is now regulated at 91F it took me a little longer to get the right temp with the simmer but i got it working. Thank you Foxton and Tttaylorrr for the helpful feedback.
