Reptiles are ectotherm, and use heat from an external source to
thermoregulate their optimal body temperature. Most reptiles use
direct radiant heat from the sun in combination with conductive heat
from sun-heated surfaces such as branches, rocks or other heat
accumulating structures. Providing such an appropriate, species
related, temperature gradient in the terrarium is an important
factor in successful reptile keeping. With the Exo Terra 300W
Dimming & Pulse Proportional Thermostat you can create a well-
controlled heating system that allows you to maintain the required
temperature conditions similar to those found in a desert or tropical
environment. The Thermostat will also help to prevent overheating
and undercooling during hot summer days or cold winter nights. The
Dimming & Pulse Proportional function keeps the temperature at the
desired set-point with a much higher accuracy than conventional
thermostats and virtually eliminates temperature swings in the
terrarium. A Red LED will indicate when the heating device is
powered and once the set temperature is reached, the LED will
switch to Blue. Simply connect your Heat Mat, Heat Cable, Ceramic
Heater or Incandescent Heat Bulb to the Exo Terra Thermostat, set
the preferred temperature and place the heat sensor in the desired
Thermostat with Day/Night
