Posted - 26/03/2016 : 07:03:20 Has anyone else had problems with their Microclimate stat? I'm having to adjust it daily as the tempurature swings wildly between 20° and 40° even when set on the lowest setting.
I've ordered a new stat (Habistat) but it won't arrive for a while because of Easter.
I'm not impressed with the quality of these stats. :/ |

The only pulse stats I can find online are 600w. Do you know if there are any 100w or if the 600w ones would be safe with the a 12w mat? |

Posted - 26/03/2016 : 12:50:59 Those aren't that good, even from Habistat you'll still get quite a variation in temperature ( though yours would suggest the thermostat is faulty ). I'd go for pulse thermostat for heatmat and ceramics ( I have those and they keep the temps very stable ) - it's well worth the extra money, or dimming thermostat with bulbs. |
