Pad y termostato muy buenos

verwarmd niet zo als ik dacht dus een tegen valer

I have 10 gallon glass tanks set up as terrariums. Since the substrate stays moist at all times, this gently heats the soil slowly. It's just a backup/booster as the house gets cold in the winter. It will not keep the air in the terrarium warm, but it does keep the soil warm. (which is how it's designed - a low and slow heater, which works best on water due to it's high heat capacity) Placed under the tank, with the soil probe set to "70F" it kept a range of 68-72F in the soil even if the room is 60F. My substrate is 4-6 inches deep, well aerated, and kept moist. Surprisingly, it works on tanks that have 4 little feet raising the tank up. (such as the Thrive brand 10 gallon open front vivarium tank) I assumed all the heat would simply rise up, hit the bottom of the tank, and proceed to leak out the sides. Without any significant warmth added to the soil. But it actually warms the soil just fine. Remember that very cold water shouldn't be poured into a glass tank with a heater touching it, because the temperature difference could crack the glass. That being said, these heaters heat very gently, without touching the glass (in my set ups), and I pour room-temperature (60F) water into the tank to water the soil. Pro - if you hang the controller up, you can easily see the current temperature of the soil reported by the soil probe. Downside - it's not quick/easy to change the temperature setting. It is a strange design, where you do NOT press the up or down arrow buttons to adjust the temperature up or down. Instead, you must hold down the setting button for a long time until it blinks. Then press up/down buttons to chose the temperature goal. Then hold down the setting button for a long time until it goes back to showing the current temperature.

Had this heat mat for just over a month now. It’s fab. Controls the temperature for my chilli’s and sweet peppers great! Really happy with it! Will be ordering another for my tomato’s
