Century Products has great customer service!

Revain accidentally sent me a Refrigeration Thermostat Regulator instead of a Thermoregulator. But Century Products solved my problem very quickly (I emailed them around midnight and got a response within an hour!) They shipped me the right product the next day! The product works as intended with no complaints, I use it on my leopard gecko and would recommend it to anyone looking for a thermostat for their reptile.

Pros
  • A Sea of Positive Emotions
Cons
  • Bad Instructions

Bug Update - Reptiles and Amphibians

*UPDATE* I originally gave this purchase a one star rating. However, the company has excelled in customer service. After hearing about my issues, the company did everything possible to fix my device first with troubleshooting instructions and then replace the entire device. We will definitely be buying from here again knowing they stand behind their products 100%. There was no troubleshooting guide. We've had this thermostat for 3 months and only recently has it started showing an error…

Must have for reptile owners!

If you use any heating element for your pet and this product does not have a readable thermostat. buy these! Crucially, these heating elements are unreliable and can overheat your animals. This device is equipped with a probe for installation in the tank or between the heating mat and the tank wall. The sensor reads the temperature and you can set a cut-off limit. As soon as the temperature reaches this value, the elements that you have connected to the thermostat will be switched off. This…

  • Fair performance

  • Ok

Good news/bad news for terrarium lamps and mats

The thermostat is supposed to switch off when the temperature reaches a certain value. I set the thermostat to 84 degrees. However, during the first two days, the temperature on the digital display reached 86 degrees, and the device itself did not turn off. However, the temp never went above 86 degrees, so I kept it as the device reads the temp and it doesn't get too hot (my snake lives in 75-85 degrees). UPDATE: The seller sent me what turned out to be a "refurbished device" after I posted…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for older people

1 week and still gives an error code.

I have had this product for a week now and am using it on my large snake. It will not heat up to the desired temperature and will continue to give an error code. This is very frustrating because my animals rely on this heat and if it can't keep them there it will kill my snakes. So it's very frustrating. Edit: I'm giving this a 5 star because of the excellent customer service. A few hours after I wrote the review I received an email from the company which was very respectful. They listened to…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Expandable

The on/off specification is 2 degrees.

bought 3 of these. everything works fine after two months, no problems. Controls the temperature of our heating tape well. For those wondering, there's a 2-degree turn-off delay. We set it to 92, so it starts at 92.1 and then restarts at 89.9. Just a note for those who couldn't find this specification. That means it works when the temperature is 2 degrees below the set temperature. Give me a like if you were interested in this particular spec, so I know I've helped at least someone (08/19/18)…

Pros
  • Ideal for a small house
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Don't buy for your snake!

Please don't buy this for your snake! To be honest I thought I might save some money buying this instead of something nicer but I really regret it. I have used this with a heat mat and it is. So much is wrong with him that I can't even explain it. But the most important thing is this. Last night my snake's temperature was set at 88 degrees. The thermostat read 90. OK, I think everything is fine. except I checked with my temperature gun that the heat mat had gone up to 110 degrees! Good thing my

Pros
  • Easy Installation
Cons
  • High Price

Great product at a great price. Very reliable

These controllers are great! I have a leopard gecko and ordered the first thermostat for her heat mat. I bought her in the summer and didn't have to worry about the temperature of her tank because she was already warm. I was hesitant to turn on their heating for fear of overheating or a possible fire. She began crawling less out of her warm skin and her appetite diminished. When I noticed this, I immediately ordered a second thermostat for her heating. She is much happier and her appetite has…
