Product Description
Exo Terra 600w Dimming Thermostat and Hygrostat 100w
Dimming thermostats can be used with heat mats, heat cables, ceramic heaters AND incandescent heat bulbs unlike the smaller wattage On/Off thermostats! Before purchase make sure this will be suitable for your heat source.
Can control heating devices up to 600w. This actually has two sockets to plug in one heating device (which can have a day and night temperature setting) and one device to control humidity, such as a fogger or humidifier up to 100w.
Thermostats are vital pieces of equipment for any reptile keeper, as they help to prevent overheating and undercooling during hot summer days or cold winter nights.
The Dimming function keeps the temperature at the desired set-point with a much higher accuracy than conventional thermostats and virtually eliminates temperature swings in the terrarium.
Daytime and night-time temperatures can be set individually making them perfect for desert reptiles where temperatures usually fall at night in their natural habitat.
Simply connect your Heat Mat, Heat Cable, Ceramic Heater or Incandescent Heat Bulb to the Exo Terra labelled socket for Temperature.
The other socket is labelled Humidity and you can plug any hygrostat device into this, such as a fogger or humidifier, up to 100w.
The Exo Terra Thermostat should be set according to the needs of the animals so always thoroughly research the preferred optimum temperature range (POTR) for your specific reptile, so you can create the correct temperature gradients inside the terrarium to allow your reptiles to thermoregulate. Always use a Thermometer to monitor the temperature inside your terrarium and adjust the Exo Terra Thermostat according to the required temperature range for your pet's environment.
