[jaybird0399]

looking at getting new thermostat. Looking at the helix dbs 100 but should i get grounded or standard also is everything prewired and ready to use out of the box, also how many heat sources will it control

If you are going to plug a plug strip in to it I would get the grounded one otherwise you will have to break the ground prong off the plug strip. If you are plugging flex watt straight in to the helix I wouldn't waste the money on the grounded one. I personally use herpstats though not helix.

i have all grounded helix...just because... received another today.
on one unit i have 6 cages attached thru a power strip (WITHOUT a surge protector).
be sure to get the one that ma xes out at 105, not 100.
they are "plug and play" ready out of the box.
