Animal plastics t8's/herpstat question

[The Serpent Merchant]

Hmm interesting, I didnt even think about it like that, thanks for the tip!



Ok, that makes sense. please excuse my ignorance im new to this aspect of heating, im only used to lamps lol. Swhat your saying is have a thermostat per enclosure, so basically buy 2 herpstat 1's or 2's instead of buying say a herpstat 4 for both enclosures?

A single herpstat 2 or a single herpstat 4 would be fine. The herpstat 2 is literally 2 herpstat 1's in a single box, and the herpstat 4 = 4 herpstat 1's in a single box.

What you want is 1 probe per heat source. A herpstat 1 has 1 probe. A herpstat 2 has 2 probes so it can run 2 heat sources.

A single herpstat 4 can safely control 4 heat sources.
