Herpstat is a great stat...but you really don't need the ND ability.
If you already have a t-stat of some sort (and I would hope you do ), then save up for the Herpstat. If you want to get a first stat, go with the Ranco and then get the Herpstat when next you can afford it.

Everybody here adores Herpstats. And with good reason I mean they are high quality thermostats.
But I love my rancos. I own a single and double ranco and I'm just not sure I'd trade them for a herpstat. Especially since the double ranco acts as it's own failsafe.
When I get my rack I am definatly connecting it to a double ranco.
Thats just one newbs opinion though. Herpstat is awesome to.

I'm building a rack on tuesday and I'm just trying to figure out what thermostat to use.I think I might go with the ranco since this is my first rack.And I would rather put the money towards animals.
