Thermostat Questions

[bcr229]

I’m have a 100w thermostat and I have two snakes and two set ups. Do I have to have a thermostat for each uth and each heat lamp?? Thanks

If the heat lamp bulbs are identical wattage and the sum of the lamp wattage is under 100W then it should be ok. Most bulbs are higher than 50W though. I also don't like to use the max load of heating sources that a thermostat can handle. So, if a thermostat is rated for 500W I'll only load it with 400W worth of heat sources.
