  • In this video I show you exactly how to set up a herpstat thermostat. This tutorial will explain how to use a herpstat, as well as all the herpstat functions. The Herpstat is probably the best snake rack thermostat available! Control all of your ambient humidity with the best reptile thermostat available, perfect for controlling tank temperatures for ball pythons, leopard geckos, skinks and more! Whether you have the Herpstat, Herpstat 2, Herpstat 4 or Herpstat 6, this tutorial can help show you exactly what you need to do to get your system running smoothly! This video starts with a quick herpstat unboxing before moving on to show you the factory default settings, and how to setup daytime and nighttime temperatures, as well as how to run your herpstat on a day/night schedule. Do you have a big reptile room? What thermostat do you use for your reptile collection? Let me know in the comments below!

    Great tutorial!
    I have used the HerpStat products for a while and I can say they have to be the best thermostats on the market!
    As for the cooling settings: it is designed to run cooling fans within the enclosure. Say you live in Texas and you're keeping heat sensitive lizards such as Abronia sp. Then the HerpStat will have a "set temperature" where once it reads (say 78) it'll turn a fan on too cool off the enclosure until it reaches a set point.
    Hopefully that clarifies the cooling setting!

      That's an amazing explination! Thank you so much :D For some reason my brain didn't connect cooling with the addition of fans, but it makes way more sense now! I'm going to pin your comment for anyone who is curious about the cooling setting

      @@kiya528 I completely understand how that felt! My herpstat sat un-used for MONTHS because I was so intimidated by the initial set up. I'm so glad it's up and running now, it takes so much anxiety out of reptile keeping! Good luck to you, I'm glad my video can be of some help :)

    Interesting! I'll probably never have a need for a thermostat like that but I can definitely see how it'd not only make herp care easier, but also safer for the animals. It takes human error and human forgetfulness out of the equation. No more constantly watching a thermometer and adjusting the heating element accordingly. Looks pretty easy to set up too! Hope people find this useful!

    • @TatianasTinyZoo
      @TatianasTinyZoo  3 года назад +1

      Yes, exactly! It's an awesome way to control a BUNCH of tank temperatures without having to buy a separate thermostat or dimmer for each one.

    So this would be better to get instead of 3 herpstat 1 ?
    U can control each unit properly im gonna have 3 pvc snake enclosures stacked with heat panels would this be good idea?

  • @crazyhawk201ad
    @crazyhawk201ad 2 года назад +1

    So by changing the night time temp to like 5 degrees lower then my home that will send zero power to the bulb correct? And then setting the time for night mode to end will then allow day time to take over. Essentially it's like have a timer shutting off the power for the 12 night mode right?

    My herpstat bounces from 78.0 - 80.0 when i have it set to 95. And the power is at 100%. I also have the probe really close to the lamp so im so confused on how it cant heat it up to 95.

      @@alop9535 I would check the placement of your probe first, see if moving it around a bit will get the correct temperature readings. If that doesn't work I'd try a different heat source and see if it's the DHP or the herpstat.
