Ultratherms are great, in fact they are some of the best available. As with all UTH's they must be regulated by a thermostat, and monitored with a probed thermometer.
Here are some good thermostats, stay away from the junk sold in pet stores:

Mid-range: http://www.reptilebasics.com/thermos...stat-prewired/
Best: http://www.spyderrobotics.com/home/products.html

While I'm at it here are 2 threads I suggest you read through:

On a side note what UTH's were you looking at? Most are relatively inexpensive ($15-$30)
