In my boa room are two three high stacks of really nice melamine cages, roller doors, cabinet grade melamine, well sealed and very well constructed. Each individual cage had dual Dial proportional thermostats, one controlling a CHE on the ceiling and the other controlling flexwat under the floor. I never liked the dial thermostats and CHE so took all that out and installed RHP's all aroound. While I was at it I removed the pedestals from the upper two cages shortening the stacks by a foot. Plenty of roon to put a fourth cage on top. Each stack is now controlled by one Herpstat Pro, one channel per cage.
