Features

  • Dimming Reptile ThermostatThe dimming thermostat is a very accurate temperature control method. It's designed specifically for controlling heat lamps, smart PID heating mode is more stable and efficient which can improve bulb lifetime. Although its perfect for heat bulbs, its also suitable for almost any heaters. (DO NOT use it with sunlamp)
  • Safety & ReliableThis temperature controller has highly accurate & precise sensor which can sensitively detect the real-time temperature and make adjustments, so you can always keep the reptile heat lamp in right temperature. Constant temperature control range is from 5C to 60C (41F to 140F)
  • Easy to UseDouble-press the 'SET' button to turn on/off the thermostat. Simply put in the temperature prob in the location that requires monitoring, set the appropriate temperature and then connect the heating device. LED digital screen can directly display ambient temperature and setting value. You can switch celsius and fahrenheit at will
  • For Reptiles Health: Compared to general thermostats, our dimming thermostat can avoids temperature instability and strong lighting changes, it's more beneficial to reptiles health. Temperature is very improtant to reptiles, their habitat must be set within a suitable temperature range to ensure their health and vitality
  • Multiple Usage: This thermostat can be attached with heat lamps, heating mat, heat cable, and can be used for reptiles, pet breeding, hatching or anything else that need to control temperature. (We would highly recommend this thermostat If the heating device is light bulbs) Maximum output load: 300W
  • Place the temperature probe at least 15cm away from the heat source, not directly under it. If the device appears to stop working, check the temperature difference a small difference may cause very low output. Increase set temperature by 3-5C to verify. Do not use with heaters exceeding 1500W. Always monitor during first use."

Description

REPTIZOO is a leading brand specializing in design, manufacturing and selling of reptile equipments since the year of 2007. REPTIZOO smart dimming thermostat has highly accurate & precise sensor which can sensitively detect the real-time temperature and make adjustments, this smart PID heating mode is more stable and efficient. It’s perfect for light bulbs, and also suitable for other heaters. How they Work: The temperature is controlled by increasing or decreasing power to the heater incrementally. If the temperature in the vivarium is too warm it supplies less power and so the light will dim. If it is too cool then the stat will supply more power, therefore brightening the bulb to provide more heat. Operating instructions Temperature setting Tips Temperature Warning Alarm 1. In normal working model, if the temperature should drop blow 0℃, the device will display LL 2. If the temperature higher than 60℃, the device will display HH 3. If the temperature drop lower than the stored setting by 3℃ or more with no press on the button , the device will flash Temperature Sensor 1. Temperature sensor, accurately control Temperature 2. Temperature control range: 20℃ to 50℃ (68°F to 122°F) ON/OFF Function Double-press the 'SET' button to turn on/off the reptile thermostat.

  • Affordable, accurate and easy to use!!!!
Product review on the ReptiZoo PID Mini thermostat. Absolutely love these! We use DHP day and night. Day temp set to 87° and night temp 81°. It gradually heats the enclosure, which seems more natural to me instead of 81°, BOOM, 10 mins later 87°. It's 5:30am in Central Florida and I just set the 2 thermostats to 87° for the day. The ambient temperature will reach 87° around 10am and be maintained throughout the day. The thermostats do allow a 5° temperature variation DOWN, but when I check my Govee's there is not major fluctuation, maybe a degree or less. See pics. Don't mind the temps looking off, I have my Govee's in odd spots right now so they look low but they're more on the cool side right now, but you can see in the graphs they are no more than a 1°F temperature drop at any point. We tried Pymeter dimming thermostats and loved them, but they emit a high tone that drove my dog nuts. Then we tried Inkbird, but they were on/off, and even though we had it to turn off at only 0.5° below the set temperature, the temperature fluctuation was ridiculous. It would often get 6-8° below and up to 4° higher than our set temp. Then we tried CavaChew and they were ehhhh. They allow that same 5° temperature fluctuation as the ReptiZoo but they really had fluctuations that I was able to measure with our Govee's, so ambient temp fluctuated a lot. We have our probes dangling beneath the DHP to get accurate heating temps (took some playing around with for correct basking temperatures), but after a day or 2 we got it. They are inexpensive, super easy to use and set up. Both our BP noodles now come out to bask or explore nightly as soon as the lights turn off and don't go back to their hides til the sun comes up. We do routinely measure the basking areas to ensure they aren't too hot, and never exceed 93° at night. They hide all day, so basking temps are a bit higher during the day, but they never come out during the day. We were previously using CHE for daytime and DHP for night, but switched solely to DHP 24/7 and it's worked wonders. Temps are on point, humidity is on point (higher right now for shedding), and not over drying our substrate. We're only having to add water once a week and mix the substrate every 4 days. Overall, love these thermostats and highly recommend them. We will be switching to PVC 4x2x2 by the end of the year and using radiant heat panels, so I'm going to have to research how these thermostats work with those as far as probe placement and accuracy. Excited to see what's to come. ... show more

  • Fixed my temperature fluctuations
First time using a dimming thermostat and it was so easy to install. The instructions were easy to follow. It keeps the temperature from my DHP bulb from getting past the temperature I need for my reptile. It keeps the temperature constant where I set it. It is a good quality and the price was very good. Before buying this I was constantly having to check temperatures but no more. I set this thermostat up one time when I plugged it in and nothing more to do. It’s so easy and works perfect. Delivery was fast too. ... show more

  • Am I doing something wrong here?
I have it set at 92. It’s flashing 83, my temperature shows 86, the light is off. Is this faulty or what?! I purchased on October 11th and it’s dead. Can I get another one sent to me? It’s past the return date of course. I paid $30 for this. Come on Reptizoo 😒 **Thanks for the refund Reptizoo. I ordered another one because when this works, it’s great. I hope I just got a bad one 🤞 ... show more

  • Keeps temperature fairly stable, but calibration is inaccurate
Once this is running and the conditions stabilize, the dimming feature functions pretty well to maintain the temperature within 1-2°F of the set temp, however, when compared to another thermometer with accuracy I trust, I found the temperature calibration on this is off by about 10 degrees (this unit measures 85-86°F while my trusted thermometer is reading 95-97°F). There is no way to fix the calibration on this, so it must always be used in conjunction with an accurate thermometer to ensure it is producing the desired temperature. For the price, this isn't bad, but I wouldn't trust it completely on its own. It's very simple to operate, displays clearly, and it's efficient. Does what it's supposed to do. ... show more

  • Perfect
Does exactly what I needed. I use it for the basking spot in my corn snakes square tank. Was easy to setup, and dims his basking lamp to maintain the desired temp. It also gently dims when it goes on in the morning, and gently dims to off when it turns off at night (so no abrupt on/off). The only setting I wish this had was a timer, but I just put it into a smart plug so it turns on/off at specific times. Other than that, it works perfectly for my little guy. ... show more

  • Do NOT rely on this thermostat alone! It is inaccurate!
I would NOT rely on this thermostat for your temps, especially the basking spot. It is not accurate and is off by several degrees. I have changed placement of the probe several times, and ran several different trial and error tests with this dimmer to ensure it’s not just a placement area of the sensor probe throwing the temps off. I had this set to 88° and it quickly sky rocketed to 112°. I used a 100w halogen bulb, as many others often use. I even tried changing the dome size of the bulb. But yet, it’s still extremely unreliable and I would not purchase again. If you buy this, do not rely on the setting you set it to and always have a temp gun, this device could very easily harm your reptile. The dimming function does work, but it’s just not enough. By the time it shoots up well above what I have it set to, it takes forever to cool off. I have been stressed and eyeing my ball pythons basking spot several times a day, using my temp gun to ensure it’s not too hot for her. I found a sweet spot (I’d like to think) I have it set on 75° and it reads about 90° on her basking spot with my temp gun, and the thermostat itself reads 83°. Along with changing probe placement- I changed the basking surface, changed bulb placement, changed domes, changed placement of the lamp itself- which is about 9 inches from my basking spot, and the probe is placed on the basking surface but 2 inches away from the main beam of the bulb as if it’s placed directly under the beam it will overheat way worse. I have tried everything I know, and I am not happy with this product. If I didn’t have a temp gun and knew accuracy varies with all thermostats, my noodle could have been severely injured from burns- thankfully I’m educated. But I am beyond shocked at how inaccurate this dimming thermostat is compared to my others. Please be mindful if you buy this, have a temp gun, and do not trust the readings you set it to. My ball pythons basking spot should be around 93°, and I have the thermostat set to 75° which reads 90° with my temp gun. ... show more

  • So worth it
This thing works so well, period. For the price its unbelievable. I have bought several, and while it wasn't published in an obvious way, the new one is updated and can handle higher temperature settings which works even better for my desert species. Im a fan for life

  • Will purchase again when needed!
Works very well! My baby corn snake is very happy to have a consistent basking spot! Definitely very grateful that it dims the bulb instead of shutting it off completely.
