Military Grade Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 I see Govee have a new smart ceramic space heater that Oscillates. I know it's not Ideal for most grows, but might be handy for bigger grow spaces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chal Posted December 31, 2023 Author Share Posted December 31, 2023 Thermostats? So; Are we going with built in 'stat models? Relying on their stats? Or, do we use our own (Inkbird etc) Controllers, on non stat ones ~ or even to over ride built in stats? Thanks, lads. I feel I'll be buying before the year's out 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindSoup Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 I get the ones from Screwfix, Diplex iirc, but TBH they're probably all made on the same production line with different branding added at the end, I doubt the brand really matters.

Yeah. I'm seeing our new friend here, Notunum, seems to have his finger on the inside track. Dimplex is showing well here ~ by any other name. Not' likes Redring? But, they're not on Amazon. Way it's going, at the moment? What ever I buy from Major Tom, I'll be paying extra, for shipping. Due to a quirk where by certain shit they won't send here on Prime Not the end of the world. But, it does cause one to consider who's got what, and will charge what in shipping, 'locally'. Screwfix for very good example. Ahh! And now, with Military Grade moving up on the inside, with his excellent coverage of the stat's situation; It's looking like it's Dimplex ~ with their built in, lightless stat's ~ becoming a firm favourite. Can Redring pull any surprises out of the hat, sought locally? Lighthouse, in the eye catching green and black strip, by the way, turned out to be an absolute fucking donkey! They went down at the first fence! Pretty pieces of shit! Exciting, this! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm aware of it. Getting these, subliminal, mental flashes of heaters screwed to boards. Strapped to poles. That sort of thing. I'm a very 'plodding' thinker / planner though. I very much like to get a grip on the One aspect, and work it till it's absolutely done. Then, I'll edge forward. 'Brian's Buttons'. Hanging one Up though? Hot air rises ..... S'pose a FAN though ....? Crafty fucker! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revive Posted December 31, 2023 Share Posted December 31, 2023 I go with dimplex for reliability, bought a few others over the years and they haven't lasted..I've got a dimplex in my lizards cage that hasn't been turned off for about 13/14 years and it's still going strong. Worth paying a bit extra for longevity imo @Chal 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
