## Description

Product description

Review: Works good. - So ive been using this thermostat for about a week now. I did have some concerns initially about the temperature probe, as its in with a very cantankerous nile monitor that loves to destroy everything. Luckily, as of this review, she has not noticed the probe. Double checked temperature accuracy with a temperature gun. Both read the same at the basking spot. The timer function is great, and I believe has 4 or 5 timers you can set up. I'm using 3 for a ventilation fan. Cord length is more than enough for use, and nice and thick to accommodate the rise in amperage with using what is effectively an outlet strip for your timer/heat/always on options. The instructions talked about easy preset functions for new users. I was able to easily customize the features to suit my needs. Works great for me, and especially for the price. I'm happy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How does this work with a heat lamp? Will it completely shut it off if the temp gets too hot or will it dim the power to reach the right temp?**
A: It will turn on when the temperature goes below the set. And it will turn off when it gets above the temp. As would your air conditioning,  it will not adjust the output to maintain a single temperature

**Q: can this unit do both cool and heat settings. or is it heat only.?**
A: Dear,
Yes, it can,but only one socket for cool or heating.
Regards,
REPTI ZOO

**Q: How do you turn off the annoying beep?  I paid $50 for this to keep my turtle comfortable but not to make me uncomfortable.**
A: You can turn the beep off by pressing any button! It’s only beeping because the temperature you have it set to is not being reached. Try adjusting the temperature of the tank or on the device itself.

**Q: What plug in do you use for the humidifier?**
A: marandon n.  must be looking at a different product.   The images as of today clearly show 3 plugs, labeled temperature, timer and always on.    There is NO plug labeled humidity.   Humidity on this model appears to be a manual process that you must monitor.    You an use either always on or timed, but neither will monitor the humidity and start or stop it so it is maintained in between a range required for your pet.  Add this functionality and make the display bigger and they may have something.    I had to make my own controller for my chameleon to do exactly what this product does, but had to run it off a smart power strip for light timing (3 different lights used to simulate sunset and sunrise).  The controller controls humidity in several different ways,  with the lights, nonindependent of the lights or off.   If the quality is there on this product, it looks solid, but is missing a true humidity control.

Works great for our reptiles and within a good price range.

### ⭐ Killed Everything (all the plants, hopefully not the whole hobby) :'(
*by F***L on July 19, 2024*

With his own money, my 13year old son purchased a THC16 temperature controller from Amazon on June 15 to use with a chest freezer to keep some sensitive exotic (carnivorous) plants at very specific conditions. The controller worked great for a month, doing everything he needed – until it didn’t. My son was sent to camp for a week and my wife and I took a 3 day vacation. When we came back, we went to water the plants for him and found that the controller was registering high temp (120°). The plant lights were on, creating heat, but the controller was no longer cycling the freezer. I can only assume the plants were cooked in there at 120+ for 3 days. Needless to say, they are all completely fried. This is probably nearly $1k worth of plants that he has accumulated all by himself though buying and selling, and birthday and Christmas presents since he was 9 years old. He comes back from camp today and I am sick to my stomach knowing that I am going to have to tell him that all of his prized plants (that he normally checks several times per day, belongs to a local club for, has his own youtube channel for, and is currently even designing his own website for) have all been effectively cooked because of this faulty controller. I have since tested it and confirmed it is definitely no longer working. I would not recommend relying on this item for anything that you want to keep alive. Product is 0 stars. I have also written to the company in hopes that there may be any sort of guarantee or coverage for the items (plants) it killed. I have not heard back yet but I will also be rating the manufacturer based on their response. I will also update the resolution here. For now, I am at a loss of what to do next. This is going to completely devastate him and we have to break the news to him when we pick him up from camp today. Edit: I contacted the manufacturer (Repti-Zoo) and they said they don't provide after sales support for items that aren't bought directly from their website. So 0/10 ranking for them. I contacted Amazon and they offered a return. So although we lost $1k in plants, at least we got to return the $50 item that caused it. Kudos to AZ for doing that, at least.
