In the future, when you're looking for a Herpstats, see if you can find a used one. I bought my Herp. 4 from someone on this forum for $250 shipped and it works great.

Before anyone tells me to get a herpstat, that is in the plans, and the hydrofarm/ stc-100 will serve as backups. However, until i can afford a $250 Herpstat 2, i need something for the immediate future. Thanks!
I guess I should have phrased that in a question? I'm also in Canada, so kind of limited to what amazon.ca stocks. The other 2 sellers are twice the price. I can figure out the wiring part to this temperature controller, I've worked with electrical enough, it's sort of common sense to me. It also looks like it may make a good incubator thermostat, as it is a heating and cooling t-stat. So you could wire up a fan, and a heating device. Thoughts?
