Nope I owned ZooMed and other cheap thermostats in the past and they are not worth the money, they allow to much fluctuation and are prone to failure.

Lamp dimmers such as the one mentioned above are very efficient (I use them for QT and never had any failure or any problem) and I would recommend that over ZooMed which I would not trust.
