So i have a choice to switch my t stats. I have a herp 1 basic and a herp 2 and they are running three tanks. the herp 1 is on an animal plastics t10 and the herp 2 is on two of my animal plastics t8's. Im looking at getting another t8 for my new bci.

here is the idea to switch. I came across a deal and it would have to be ordered today to get a herp 4 for $300 shipped brand new. do i sell the herp 1 and 2 and go to a herp 4 one out put for each tank or do i bridge one of the herp 2 out puts to run another t8. all tanks are heated with a RBI 80w rhp.

What would you do? get the herp 4 and later if need be bridge those or bridge now and save $50. if i was to sell the herp 1 and 2 i would be asking $160 shipped for the herp2 and $100 shipped for the herp 1.

I need to send the guy money within a few hours if i do choose to do the herp 4.

Hmm.. cant really say, the herpastats dont go for near that much by me,( at least not 2 weeks ago when I checked, though he did mention a sale) I was going to buy a brand new Herp 2 for like 130 I think at my local All Animal Expo, a breeder Ive purchased from before also sells all the herpistat stuff and repairs them and he is very reasonable. PM me if you want his info just as another option.

This^^^^^^

Get it as you will never get another herp 4 at that price. That's about $100 off.

I'd also keep them both. A backup for each T-stat in case of failure is a good thing to have.

It apparently was a company wide sale so maybe I will the next time they run :P, It was my first time pricing them at the time so I didnt realize it was such a good sale, ( was a extention from the NARBC show) I will be grabbing a herp 4 the next time Im in the market just more cost effective.
