are there any good digital thermostats around the 10-20$ range?

whats an example of a good reliable digital thermometer?

again, thanks for all the help guys...

Lets clarify, there is a difference between a thermometer and thermostat. A thermometer reads temps, where as a thermostat reads temps and adjusts temps accordingly.

There is no digital thermostat in the 10-20$ range, but there is a dial on off thermostat called the reptitemp 500r which is around $25. It is the cheapest thermostat for a single setup. It is hard to find in stores though and you will most likely have to order one online.

As far as thermometers go, the accurite weather station is an indoor outdoor thermometer (for your house) for single setups. It is sold at the home depot, lowes, and walmart for around $12.

Thanks for all the help guys. I got the repti temp 500r, covered 3 sides of the tank, and got the accu rite thermometer, and today he ate a f/t mouse! I put it in his cage, then wiggled it around for 5 minutes, but no luck. I left for 10 minutes, and tried again but... no luck. I just left the mouse in there so i could try after i watched a tv show or something, and while entering my room to put laundry away i noticed he took the mouse!! While it was just laying there! He got it down in like 5 minutes.

Once again, thanks for all the info and help!!! Now i can sleep in peace

Yeah, I think I might have been intimidating him while feeding him, he's a rather shy snake.
