I realize that some people feel that spending $100 on a single piece of equipment may be a little much, and $100 means different things to different people, but honestly how do you put a price (that low) on the safety of your animals?
Many people use them. I actually got the idea from a guy off this forum site. I have been using them for a really long time. They do an awesome job. And it is funny how the OP uses an actual reptile thermostat that wont lessen the temperature past 120F yet my 1 and a half year old dimmer switches has my corn snake`s temp at 85F and my boas at 90F. And until I got a herpstat, the dimmers kept my ball pythons cages at 92F. I only moved to a herpstat because I have three snake racks heat and only one outlet.
