    I would suggest a herpstat 1 it has more safety features than any other. The VE and helix are basically the same but the ve stacks, a basic unit. The price is so close to the same that for an extra 20$ and the added security of the herpstat I would not bother with the VE.

    x2 to the above ^. I bought a Herpstat 1 for my hatchling rack for just that reason and a Herpstat 2 for my two adult racks, as $20 is pretty cheap for peace of mind. I have a Helix on my quarantine rack and it's fine...but only just fine. I won't buy another one and will replace it with a Herpstat if it goes out or I hit the lottery...so when it goes out, given my luck, lol! I have yet to breed any of my animals but will be trying for this year with a homemade incubator and a Herpstat I running it.

    Only a proportional one. As long as it's proportional and not cheap it should do well. I use helix and vivarium for everything (with back ups on EVERYTHING!!!).
