As far as I'm concerned, as long as it gets hot it's fine by me. It's the quality of the thermostat/rheostat that I'd be looking at. I'm a firm believer that ALL UTH, heat rocks, heat tape... anything that gets hot needs one. I can't beleive some of the animals/pictures I've seen *shudders*.

I guess I never answered which were more reliable.

I like the zoo med line for thermostats/rheostats. I'm going to get a ranco in a month or two for my racks though... I'm so happy about it too!
