Review on 🐒 REPTI ZOO Reptile Thermostat THC16 - Digital Outlet Temperature Timer for Reptiles, Terrariums, Aquariums, and Mushroom Fermentation - Troptical/Desert Mode, Day/Night Control, Humidistat - Easy Setup by Tabitha Johnson

Works but LCD is broken

This is a pretty good thermostat controller for its money. It turns on and off when it needs to run day or night and even gives you an extra always-on plug for whatever you need. I have two complaints: 1. The wiring is not very good. I wouldn't worry about that for a 30 watt radiant heater, but for anything beyond that I'd consider something heavier.2. The current temperature display for me came out of the packaging broken. Hitting the panel with my hand a few times can sometimes get it to work, but not always. It's not a deal breaker for me as I always use an external thermometer for second opinions and monitoring, but it's annoying. I would probably buy another if I needed an upgraded thermostat on a budget. You really can't get this feature set at this price point anywhere else. I'll eventually upgrade to something more powerful and with a higher build quality, but for now it's a nice step up from the base thermostat.

Pros
  • Plug and play design is easy to use and store; removable waterproof temperature sensor for easy maintenance
