| well, following other peoples advice I think I shall probably just buy a Habistat stat instead, and keep this one as a spare. it fluctuates a little too much for me to be happy |

| nice! cheaper than what I paid :/ had to get mine in a rush though, got mis-informed so didnt have one immediately. also had rubbish dial thermometers, so its been a bit traumatic for my poor snake :( all sorted now though but I think Ill get a Habistat as I said. Ill look at Ebay though, hopefully find one cheaper there |
