Pulse Proportional Thermostat

[YayPythons]

What do people think of these? Do they work with heat cords and CHE's? How do they compare to dimming thermostats?

Thanks,

Dimming thermostats are for light globes. Pulse proportional is for everything else. I use switching for all my Herps however use pulse proportional for incubators. I can't seem to find a good habistat or microclimate which is day/night pulse proportional and doesn't use that magic eye thing. Cheaper models ie the JET models on eBay are day/night pulse proportional however allow you to input your daylight hours rather than relying on a magic eye to pick up light in the room which I do not like/trust.

http://www.herpshop.com.au/ the table on the thermostat tab might help.

I use the habistat pulse proportional thermostat with some of my heat cords. Temps stay very stable, so would be great for incubators and young animals. I haven't had a problem with mine.

I think they are great, and work very well with all heat sources apart from lights.

Hi YayPythons, nice to meet a local I actually live at east brisbane I use pulse proportional Thermostats for my raidiator panels and they work well.

Cheers Matt

Hey guys I'm in Brissy also... I've just set up an incubator using a habistat pulse proportional thermostat which hooked up to a 25 watt heat cord... Temps are looking good... Very consistent with little fluctuation..

I use pulse proportional for heat cord, heat pads and CHEs. They give a nice tight control. My incubator only varied 0.3 degrees during incubation. I have the Habistat ones from Herpshop and am very happy with them. Worth the investment.
