    Thermostat?

    I need to get a thermostat (or probably more than one) for my snakes and i was wondering if anyone could help me out with a good not so expensive brand. I have two tanks to regulate (for my ball and redtail) and i really don't know what brand to get. I'm still fairly new to snake keeping and any help would be great.

    Re: Thermostat?

    Cheapest option would be a Johnson or a Ranco, but the on/off clicking might annoy you. They are about 60 bucks each, and only control 1 temp.

    If you want to upgrade, a Herpstat II would be perfect in your situation, and would be a solid purchase even if you wanted to expand later. They run a little more than 200.

    Re: Thermostat?

    I use this one for my tub setup. It has two inputs too. Woot. AND...it's cheap. I wouldn't use it for a rack, but it's definitely worth the cash.
