Question proprtional thermostat options

looking to upgrade my temperature control and was thinking about proportional thermostats. I know Helix has one. Didn't Alan with junglehabitats have a model as well and is he still in business? Can't seem to find his website and it appears he has fallen out of favor on this forum but thats another topic. Any other options? The Ranco and Johnson controls thermostats are tempting now since they come prewired at $85. Will be using flexwatt and retail uth's for 3 corns and 2 blackpines.

Big Apple makes one, I beleive it is about 115.00. Then there is helix, I dont know if Alan is selling them or not, LLL reptile has them for 130+shipping. The johnson controls is a good choice(shameless plug) but they are not proporitional. The ranco is pretty much the same thing just in a bigger case. If ya need anymore info on the johnson controls shoot me a pm or email..Hope this helps..

If the Ranco and Johnson controlls are tempting at that price

try 45-50 at Controlls depot.

What do you guys think of this: Herpstat . Looks like it will be this if I go proportional or the johnson control if not. If I have identical setups, can I plug them all into a power strip then plug the strip into the proportional controller and expect it to work correctly?

I have seen posts on this thermo, asking about it but noone ever posting about if it is good or not. Yes if you get a pro. thermo and have identical setups you can runseveral of them off on thermo. As long as they are the same temps when you start. No matter which thermo you go with I would get some digital thermometers just to be safe when using mulitiple cages on one stat..Hope this helps..
