This means that the quality of heating in the terrarium has a direct impact on their health and life expectancy. The key link in this system is <strong>the terrarium thermostat<\/strong> \u2013 a device that protects your pet from overheating or cooling down.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What are the risks of not having a thermostat?<\/h2>\n\n<p>A heating mat or foil without a thermostat works &#8220;at full power&#8221; around the clock. The substrate temperature can then exceed 40\u00b0C, leading to: <\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Burns to the body shells<\/li><li>Dehydration<\/li><li>Digestive disorders<\/li><li>Damage to internal organs<\/li><li>In extreme cases \u2013 death of the animal<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<p><strong>A thermostat is not a luxury \u2013 it is the absolute minimum of safety.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Types of thermostats \u2013 which one to choose?<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ON\/OFF thermostat \u2013 the cheapest, simplest<\/h3>\n\n<p>Turns the heating on and off when the temperature exceeds a preset threshold. Easy to use, but causes temperature fluctuations of 1\u20132\u00b0C. Recommended for less demanding species and for basic heating. Example: <a href=\"https:\/\/reptishop.pl\/en\/produkt\/termostat-ministat-100w-on-off-en\/\" title=\"Ministat Thermostat 100W ON\/OFF\">Ministat 100W ON\/OFF<\/a>.   <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Dimming thermostat \u2013 precision and energy savings<\/h3>\n\n<p>It regulates the heating power smoothly (just like a dimmer). It maintains the temperature with an accuracy of \u00b10.5\u00b0C. Recommended for demanding grades and rack systems. <a href=\"https:\/\/reptishop.pl\/en\/produkt\/termostat-b1-dimming-en\/\" title=\"Thermostat B1 Dimming\">The Microclimate B1 Dimming thermostat<\/a> is one of the most popular choices for growers.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Pulse Thermostat (PWM) \u2013 for lamps and heating stones<\/h3>\n\n<p>It controls the power by pulsing the signal rapidly. Ideal for incandescent lamps and heating stones, where smooth adjustment is key. <a href=\"https:\/\/reptishop.pl\/en\/produkt\/termostat-b2-pulse-en\/\" title=\"B2 Pulse Thermostat\">The Microclimate B2 Pulse<\/a> is a solid choice for this category of applications. <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wi-Fi thermostat \u2013 control from the app<\/h3>\n\n<p>The most modern solution. It allows you to monitor and change the temperature from your smartphone, sets the day\/night mode, sends alarms in the event of a failure. <a href=\"https:\/\/reptishop.pl\/en\/produkt\/termostat-evo-connected-iii-wi-fi-alarm-en\/\" title=\"EVO Connected III Wi-Fi Thermostat\">EVO Connected III<\/a> is a flagship model with alarm and app operation. For even greater requirements, <a href=\"https:\/\/reptishop.pl\/en\/produkt\/termostat-evo-connected-pro-wi-fi-alarm-en\/\" title=\"EVO Connected Pro Thermostat\">EVO Connected Pro<\/a> is available.  <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">EVO Lite thermostat \u2013 budget Wi-Fi<\/h3>\n\n<p>If you want to be able to monitor from your phone but are looking for a more budget solution, <a href=\"https:\/\/reptishop.pl\/en\/produkt\/termostat-evo-lite-en\/\" title=\"EVO Lite Thermostat\">the EVO Lite<\/a> is a great option with a mobile app at a lower price.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to choose a thermostat for your needs?<\/h2>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>1 tank, budget<\/strong> \u2192 Ministat ON\/OFF or EVO Lite<\/li><li><strong>Rack system with<\/strong> \u2192 B1 Dimming or B2 Pulse heating foil<\/li><li><strong>Professional breeding or incubation<\/strong> \u2192 EVO Connected III or EVO Connected Pro<\/li><li><strong>No time for continuous monitoring<\/strong> \u2192 any model with alarm (EVO Connected II\/III\/Pro)<\/li><\/ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RAMP function \u2013 why is it important?<\/h2>\n\n<p>EVO Connected models offer a RAMP function that allows <strong>you to gradually transition<\/strong> between day and night temperatures. Instead of a sharp jump from 31\u00b0C to 28\u00b0C, the temperature changes smoothly for 30-60 minutes \u2013 just like in nature. This is especially important for species that require a daily thermal gradient.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Reptiles are warm-blooded animals \u2013 they cannot regulate their body temperature on their own.
