I'm not Jeff(I wish I was though), but if you run your thermostat to a power strip it will keep your cages close in temp. Craig Kade

so then the power strip that is attached to the thermostat that i already have if i got another thermostat i would just plug it into that strip?

You can run up to 20 of our cages on our single thermostat. Any more than that, though you may not exceed the wattage the thermostat will handle, you will begin to loose voltage reducing the heaters ability to function effectively. You can use additional power strips plugged into the power strip provided to plug in more than six cages. This and lots of other useful information is available on the web site regarding our thermostat and the best way to set it up. Calling me is the most reliable way to get in touch with me from 9:00 AM till 6:00 PM Monday through Friday and most Saturdays. I get dozens of calls all day long and am happy to help out this way. I have the Boaphile Hot Line strapped to my hip during those hours. Though I have actually posted here on the Kingsnake Boa forum I think four times in the past couple days, I haven't posted here for a couple years and very rarely look here. I am just too busy sniffing glue and taking care of the too many Boas I have kept. Have fun and call anytime while I have that phone on me.
