i have to types of thermometers. i have an exo terra one that i got free with PRK that just has a button for on/off and screen. i also have another one don't know make but it has 4 buttons. the main thing i love about this one is the max min button. i can't find any more of these. cuz then when i set up a new tank i can see how high it got and how it dropped. does anyone else have any of these. whats the best to use.

Yer I use the Exo Terra min/max one for my corn's hot end. I use the eBay special £1.99 + £0.50 delivery cheap ones for the cold end. I did use the Exo Terra min/max PLUS hygrometer built in for humidity for my royal, but to be honest I think with corns (& royals) you just need the temperature as the humidity should never be a problem if your set up is good. (no water bowl on the heat mat etc). But if you want to then obviously it will be something else you can measure and keep an eye on.

TBH what ever you use, as long as its digital it'll be more accurate than the analogue/dial ones.
