Re: Herpstat 2 and questions
I personally think halogen/UV combo for daytime does replicate the sun better, but that doesn't mean your snake will suffer without it by any means.
I plan to switch mine to halogen at some point, but things are moving slowly for me right now as I have a lot going on. Mine have been fine without it for about 2 years.
I will say that I think DHPs are much, much more effective and cost effient than CHEs. They also push the heat down further. I started with che/heat mat like you and moved to a single DHP instead of needing 2 sources of heat. And they can be on 24/7 like a CHE as they have barely any light.
They're a little closer to that "better" IR goal as they have a lot more B-rays.
I have mine hooked up to Vivarium electronics thermostats, the and 300 and 200, so unfortunately can't help with the herpestat setup.
