Obviously both probes on the heat tape, VE plugged into the on/off and the on/off plugged into the wall.
    I have heard of doing this. I have a ve 200 too and dont have it setup to another t-stat as a backup but have been considering it. Never really heard both sides of the debate though...
    Jinx, please let us know your opinions once you get both t-stats up and running. Id be eager to know if one has an edge over the other.

    Re: Excitedly sharing my new BP Rack

    Looks like you are going to have one empty tub. That tub must be filled! This is a requirement. You would be breaking Law 117 subsection 9 in the BP owner's rule book if you left that tub empty - don't break the law!

    trust me I tried that one with the wife. She almost agreed. But alas, she's smart and said I can use the extra one as a place to put one of them when we are cleaning their tub.

    Shouldn't she hold them while you clean the tub??? I still call law breaking. Find a morph she likes and get her a snake? Rack looks awesome though. We just got ours built and got the kids in. I love it. I thought I would miss seeing them in their tanks through out the house, but the tubs are so much more accessible, and I have so much more room now. Glad I went with rack.
