I know it serves me right for buying a cheap and nasty ebay thermostat, but I can't get this damn thing to work right. It worked fine when I tested it, with only a 2 deg temp swing. I turned it all back on yest for my jungles arrival and the temp is swinging 6 or 7 deg! and its been on for over 30 hrs now. I'm using it to control the 14W heat mat under a 30L click clack, I have the probe halfway along the click clack set to 27 deg and the thermometer probe at the hot end. Max and min readings are 35 - 28 and when I drop the thermostat to 26 it doesn't even reach 30 at the hot end before switching off. How can 1 deg on the thermostat mine a 5deg difference at the hot end? I have tried moving the thermostat probe around to minimise temp swing but nothing seems to be working
Any tips ideas would be much appricated. Bit I think i need to bite the bullet and buy a decent thermostat
