Ok, thanks. No I'm using a Herpstat Pro. I've always just wired a rack in parallel and had a thermostat controlling just that one rack. I'm in a situation where I need to wire things differently from element to another, and have the elements be different sizes, but all at the same temp.

I just wanted to make sure that I could have different pieces at different lengths and wired differently (some in parallel, some not, etc) and still get a uniform temp across the elements.

(I hope this makes sense ).
