Second that. For the peace of mind and ease of use, spend the money and buy a quality unit. Helix isn't bad for quality, although the features are a bit annoying in terms of setting the temp. I have both a Helix and a Herpstat and would far and above recommend the Herpstat if you're going to spend the money. Just my two cents. Good luck, whatever you decide!
