Thank you for all that info!Thermostats do not come cheap. the Cheapest ones I've seen are $40, and I think that they don't work well. A decent thermostat will run at least $70 and and good one will be $100 +. I use the Herpstat thermostats by Spyder Robotics. A dimmer would be good for your light. If you don't want to/ can't get a thermostat a heat lamp can be sufficient, as long as you get one with enough power. I would get the 75Watt version.
Okay, so if I don't get a thermostat for the UTH, then I can just use the heat lamp alone with a 75 watt bulb? Is that what you're saying? The red bulb, right?
Sorry, just trying to understand it all![]()
