Multi tank thermostats

[yojoe05]

As some members already know I'm working on a 5 tier viv stack, I'm starting to now look for thermostats for the UTH's and I'm trying to find if there's a multi tank thermostat out there that operates more than just two UTH's. I'm looking to operate the entire stack on one-two thermostats. I currently have a two UTH thermostat that I'll be using so if I could find a three plug in thermostat it would take care of my entire stack without having to have a seperate one for each tank.

Zilla 1000watt Temperature Controller has 3 outlets. I just bought a new one that only has one thing plugged into it, but my other one has all 3 outlets plugged into. Sorry I don't have a link.

If you need separate probes, the Herpstat 4 by Spyder Robotics will control 4, they're pricey though. If you don't need separate probes, then I'd second the Zilla 1000w. You'd be looking for this http://www.amazon.com/Zilla-11939-Temperature-Controller-1000-Watt/dp/B002CZ0J3E and can actually find them at most reptile carrying pet stores if Amazon isn't your thing for whatever reason. Just make sure you get the 1000 watt and not the 500 watt.

Thanks guys it sounds like it will work just fine. Since heat rises I plan on having the probe in my lower tanks to take readings for all three of them. This will work great and thanks for the help.

You want to base your stat setting off the uppermost viv, which will be the hottest.

Physics to the rescue!

Thanks for the link Nythain that was exactly what I was looking for, and Nanci I just sent you a pm to discuss the thermostat readings better, thanks for the help guys.
