Two thermostats instead of one for redundancy in case one malfunctions and cuts out (has not happened).

1 VE Thermostat to control small UTH's of same wattage (100+ daisy chain)
1 VE Thermostat to control medium UTH's of same wattage (50+ daisy chain)

Works like a charm.

Edit: Hatchlings won't like being in larger enclosures--I'm sure you can clutter it up, but, it would probably just be easier to use small bins temporarily.
So I could run one thermostat on the two bigger enclosures with 12x8 UTHs, and another one on 4 smaller ones, as long as the wattage is the same? Run a power strip to the thermostat and plug the UTHs into that?
