So, years ago, I sold off just about everything I had.
I had 3 snakes left 2 BPs and my corn. I left for a week and a half. At some point my thermostat freaked out and cooked my snakes.
I had a prewired Ranco from reptile baisics. It had worked great for a couple years. I guess it shorted out.

Anyways, That experience left a bad taste in my mouth and I stayed away from snakes for a while. My daughter, 6, Wants a snake now. Probably my fault lol. I figure, why not 2. I'm gonna split my 30 gallon glass tank down the middle to house 2 small snakes for the time being. Considering Balls, small boas, or garters. Gonna run heat tape down the middle, under the tank and probably put a piece in my divider.

I need recommendations for a solid, reliable, not super expensive thermostat taht can run 2-4 pieces of heat tape.

I can 'research' all day but I'd rather hear from the people that use them.
