 Thermostat

I have owned chameleons in the past so I figured if someone knew about precision temperature control they were probably on here. Anyhow... I am trying to find a thermostat for my boa cage and I’m having trouble finding one that is dependable and worked as a power dimmer rather than on/off, since it will be on a heat light.

I was looking at the CA Heat Controller RF 1000, but it looks like an on/off deal.

Any suggestions?

The problem with wishing for an "all or nothing" solution like this is that one many times wont find a product.

If I was you I would have a constant spotlight (you can dimm it to a good temp that is producing an over-all temperature below your wanted over-all temp), and just have a regular pulsing thermostat for your other heatsources, like mats, cables or radiatiors.

That may very well be the solution.

Thanks,
