| | Regular Member | Join Date: Nov-06 Location: Brisbane Gender:  | | | Thermosats...which one is best?
Wanting to purchase a dimming thermostat to run a heat light for my new enclosure. Which brand are the better ones to get? I wouldn't have a clue which one.
The Herp shop are selling some. Not sure if they are OK. Can anyone help / advise? |

It's up to you whether you want a stat with the night-time drop function, which is useful if you have an adult snake that you want to breed, or if you want to replicate natural conditions. Note that you shouldn't cool down a juvenile. I have a B1ME but don't use that function at the moment. |

I've got the B1ME, although I don't use the 'Magic-Eye' function.

Microclimate B2ME Thermostat for non-light emitting heat sources (heat mats, ceramics etc)
HabiStat range from the Herp Shop might be worth a look as well. |

|  | Necker Cube Subscriber | Join Date: Feb-07 Location: NSW | | | | I only have experience with the microclimate range however I also hear good things about the Habistats on Herpshop. I personally think the best thermostat on the market for overall versatility, price and performance is the Microclimate B1ME. |

|  | Regular Member | Join Date: Jul-07 Location: typical melbourne Gender: | | | | i have not used the ministat 300 or b1 i just use the imit brand they are cheaper and i have no problem with them with globes or ceramics but that is my opinion |

|  | I love it LOUD! Subscriber | Join Date: Oct-06 Location: Sutherland Shire NSW Age: 32 | | | | I'm not a big fan of my imit (well, its like an imit, but a honeywell), so for $30 or $40 more, since its generally a once off, I think I might stick to a plug in ministat 300.
