Posted by: Rainshadow at Wed Oct 11 13:19:55 2006 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by Rainshadow ] Personally,I wouldn't spend anywhere near that on a single unit that operated on the "forced air" type heating principal.(if you ever wanted to use a pulse proportional thermostat,it won't work with heaters that have (fan) motors.)My day job(s)have given me quite a bit of experience with both electricity,and enviromental control,and I would recommend going with the "oil filled-radiant heat" type heaters...they seem to be a little better designed each year,most not only come with thermostatic control,but several models I've seen also incorporate built in timers,which can also be useful with breeding season temperature regimens...you could probably buy 4-5 nice units for the price of the one you're considering...I have a fairly large snake-room,and I use two,one for the primary room,controled by a Helix T-stat.and one for the nursery,or "baby room",which often runs on "low" while the primary room is allowed to drop at night....anyway,just my two-cents...best of luck with whatever you choose.
