I was just curious if someone has been using these. I like the fact it has multiple probes and will regulate up to 4 cages at a time. My concern was the way it looked etc.

My Big Apples all work excellent.. but when you have a stack of cages it is difficult to get one probe to do the entire job since each cage in the stack has its own different heat even though they are all setup identical. The cages in the middle stay hotter, as the cages nearer to the top tend to cool off. The top cage is a few degrees lower then the bottom.

All of my Big Apples came with a night drop for free and they only cost 100 bucks each.

However, to get the same 4 cages regulated that would add up to 400 bucks vs 269. Just curious.. I want to make sure they have been used and abused and all work as stated before I try one.

Thanks
Shawn Morelan
