i just got a hydrofarm thermostat in the mail. i bought it to test to see if i feel safe with it or not. planning on at least 2 tests right now. one i am going to plug it in with nothing plugged into it and place the probe right next to the probe for my herpstat. try and see where it reads compared to a known good brand. another test is i have a bunch of random tubs laying around. i figure ill throw a quick rack together and put in tubs and aspen and flex watt and see how well it heats teh tubs. no snakes will be in the tubs. i also want to run it with heat rope and compare the heat output vs. flex watt.
any other ideas on tests just let me know what you want to see and ill see if i can do it. not sure when ill actually start the test but ill get to it....lol
