I just ordered two of these temperature controllers to try out for my animals. One will be used for the heated/insulated night box I am designing for my 12 inch sulcata.

they take a little bit of wiring knowhow but there are a lot of instructions online and even in the amazon comments. All that needs wired is the power cord and output outlets. most people use them for controlling the temperature of their beer they are fermenting. They come with a temp probe already on a 7ft line. and can even have an alarm for letting you know when something isnt right. And they can even control a cooling unit.
I may end up using mine in conjunction with flexwatt to heat the substrate and a CHE, MVB, and or oil radiator heater
Just thought I'd pass on the info for anyone that wants to do something a little fancier/cheaper than the standard $30+ dial thermostat. the controller is called the inkbird ITC-2000.
