Further Info

The HabiStat Classic Pro Dimming Thermostat 450W helps maintain a safe and consistent temperature in your tortoise's enclosure by automatically regulating the output of a connected heat source.

Tortoises rely on external warmth to regulate their body temperature, making reliable temperature control an important part of their health and well-being.

Unlike traditional on/off thermostats, which repeatedly switch the heat source on and off, a dimming thermostat gradually increases or decreases the power supplied to the heating lamp to maintain the desired temperature.

This makes it particularly suitable for basking floodlights, helping provide a more consistent basking temperature while reducing unnecessary temperature fluctuations.

Benefits for your tortoise:

  • Helps maintain consistent basking temperatures

  • Reduces the risk of overheating

  • Supports healthy digestion and metabolism

  • Automatically adjusts heating output

  • Helps create a stable thermal environment

The thermostat is ideal for use with compatible basking lamps, including the Arcadia Solar Basking Floodlight, and can be used in tortoise tables, vivariums and other indoor enclosures.

Important: Always position the thermostat probe correctly, following the manufacturer's instructions, and independently check temperatures using a reliable thermometer or temperature monitoring system. The thermostat controls the connected heat source but does not replace appropriate UVB lighting or a suitable enclosure temperature gradient.

Additional Features

  • LCD screen for temperature monitoring

  • Detachable temperature probe

  • Over-temperature and under-temperature alarms

  • Fast-acting protective fuse

  • Maximum heating load: 450W

These features provide additional control and reassurance when managing your tortoise's heating equipment.

  • Ensure your reptile heat mats are operating at the right temperature using this highly accurate and reliable HabiStat Mat Stat - this is used and trusted by professionals and hobby reptiles owners worldwide.

  • The Habistat Mat Stat thermostat is the safe and efficient way to regulate heat in your heat mats, up to 300 watts.

  • Please note - it should NOT be used to run lights or ceramic heaters due to a fundamental incompatibility (alternatively, you could use an on/off or a dimming thermostat up to 600w for this purpose).

  • The Habistat Mat Stat uses a remote probe (on a long lead - approx 55") to monitor the temperature in your reptile's enclosure. The temperature at the probe is compared to the temperature set on the thermostat dial and then a signal is sent to the heat mat to either increase or decrease the intensity of the heat output. A steady temperature is maintained with little or no manual input from you. It is still recommended as good practice to include manual temperature checks using a digital thermometer each day.
