Thermostats

[AnnieHeart]

From what another poster said, probably. Or you could have a faulty one.

My house temperatures fluctuate all day long, would a well-running thermostat keep control even in fluctuating temperatures?

Yes. You should be able to maintain temp within a couple degrees, at least on the hot spot, ambient will still fluctuate because of the temp in the house. I would try a jumpstart, it’s probably cheaper than the one you have. How well is your temp probe attached and where is it located?

The temperature probe is resting between the UTH and glass, directly above where her hide is

As long as pressed tightly between the UTH and the enclosure that should be perfect. Try a different Tstat and return that one.

I think that's what I'll end up doing if I can't fix it. I'm going to double check everything and then I'll decide. Do you have a favorite high quality or really well-made thermostat that you would recommend if I can get mine to work?

I think everyone would agree herpstat and one other brand are the most popular. I haven’t gone to a herpstat quite yet because I need the Herpstat 4 and it’s around $400 I believe. I think the standard Herpstat can be bought for around $100.

I certainly will! Tonight it is getting cool again and so I can mess around with it and see what happens! For now, though, I'll have to just adjust it frequently.
