Is it definately faulty? The twin stats are configured odd, for them to fully work corectly both channels need to have a working heat source connected to them.

Plenty of Retics and Burms

If one is working you could put an adaptor on it if your setups are the same. |

I think i might of **** it,before today i was only using one side of the twin stat as my corn used to get enough heat from the lamp in the viv below. |

Is it the corn or the king without heating? Either way, when mine stopped working I ran my royal off my corn's stat for a week while I sent it back. |

not at the moment,i did have the king and corn on the double stat and royal on a lamp and dimmer,now i have the corn on top of the viv with the lamp so hes getting heat from there and the king is on the stat that is working from the double stat but when i send it back will only have the dimming stat and the king will be without heat,there for will have to get another stat for him while it's being fixed. |

Is the viv getting any heat from the others? |

i sent a dimming stat back a while ago,got it back in about a week,going to have to wait until i can afford another before i can send it back or the king will be without heat.might try and get another dimming stat and fit him a infrared lamp like my royal. |

Lee you're a jinx! Cyd's stat has gone faulty now
That's two stats that have gone in the last month. Plus Matty's broke too. What's happening to them all? They don't make them like they used to |

I put it back on this morning with no snake in the viv and it seems ok now,shutting off and cutting in at the right temps.Im going to keep it on for a few days without the corn in(just in case)and see how it goes,might of been because i did'nt use both channels of the double stat before.thanks any way anne,whats her forum name,might get one as a reserve if their cheap enough. |
