Again, and after only a 'day or two' of operation, I've had my second (replacement for the first) ATC-210 Dimming thermostat fail from Australian Reptiles.
I am using it to run a bank of 4 enclosures. One heat globe and one light globe per enclosure. These plug into separate power boards, one for heating, and one for lighting, which then plug into the respective receptacles of the thermostat.
The first one failed after one week and just continued to heat 24/7. The second one has just failed altogether and does not turn on when plugged in.
I wouldn't have thought this would be an overload, unless I've just been very unlucky with my two units.
It's been a long time since I received the replacement, and only just decided to use it. Unfortunately my confidence in this unit is now very low.
Just after advice, experiences or recommendations, either from users or manufacturers.
