I got myself 2 new 64L Rubs and got the correct heatmats etc for them, but Im going to buy 1 new thermostat since I already have one for the smaller tub my Royals were in (decided to split them up now after 2 weeks)

I bought the Habistat Thermostat for their current setup and when I looked around I also found out that they do Mat Stats?
Now I noticed the difference in watts, thermostat is capacity of 300w and mat stat is capacity of 100w im sure.

What one is best to buy or is there no real difference?

depends really , mat stat is fine for what your using it for josh , if your intending running more mats etc id up to the 300w . ive build a new rack with day/night pulse 600w and night eyes to go on 24 x 48"x6" heat strips , cant go wrong that way Laughing
