Looking to buy another (possibly 2) mini stat, best place online to buy one please?

888 Reptiles have them for £19.99 (Habistat)
Surrey Pet Supplies have them for £19.50 and Microclimate's £17.03 (which is the best I can find)

Anywhere cheaper anyone?

Swell worked out the cheapest at £19.98 including P&P which I think is pretty goo for a mini stat delivered?

Now on the hunt for the least expensive heat mat on the online market

it might be cheaper if you get everything from the same place, then you will save on postage

same here I've just had a microclimate stat and mat fail after 9 months, they have repaired the stat but said there was nothing wrong with the mat (12" x 12" mat with temp range of 25 - 42 over the surface is perfectly normal apparently) sorry just don't trust either now replaced with good old habistat from Surrey Pet Supplies arrived 2 days later.

My own choice would be habistat everytime but I think it's just personal choice someone else might pop along with other choices for you to consider.

I got a second hand MICROclimate for my first corn so just ordered another one for my next set up, I should really have just bought a dual thermostat in the first place but I really didn't think I was going to take to these snakeys as I have done!!
