Guide to reptile thermostats and their use
« on: April 08, 2011, 05:38:49 AM »
Hey all,

It seems to be a bit of a running theme with people new to the hobby to get a little confused with the array of thermostats available. With that in mind, I threw together this guide which details how to use thermostats, the main types available, how they operate and how they are best used.

Hope this guide proves useful to anybody who isn't sure about thermostats:

Reptile Thermostats

Let me know what you think!

Have never heard the term pulse proportional... I'm referring to stats such as the Helix DBS-1000 and the herpstat pro
