## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the seller recomend this can be used with a ceramic set up in a reptile viv? Does it act like a pulse or dimming stat or on off stat?**
A: The Inkbird thermostat controller are all the on/off model. But it is also can work with the ceramic heat emitter or tube heater.

**Q: Would this be suitable for a crested gecko enclosure as the heat lamp I have is very hard to maintain the correct temperature**
A: I would say yes if the heat lamp you use is not relied on for any firm of light in the tank. When the temp is over your required level the power will be cut to the lamp therfore letting the heat dissipate. When the temp lowers to within 0.2 degrees of where you want to be the lamp will power back up. Normally this device will keep to within 1 degree of your required setting

**Q: Can i use 2 heating equipment for the cooling and heating? I have 2 reptiles and wonder if i can plug the heat lamp in cooling and other in heating**
A: The two socket outlets are controlled by separate relays. When one socket is on the other is off. The drawback is there is only one thermocouple (heat sensor) as it is designed to control ONE enclosed space not two. Experiment with two table lamps, one in each socket and use a hair dryer on the heat sensor.

**Q: can someone recomend a good heater/cooler to go with this? I'm struggling to find one**
A: This all depends on the size of the space your trying to maintain. Although it does work great with a oil filled radiator plugged into heat and carbon filter extraction on cool. This also helps regulate humidity.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So useful I bought another
*by A***Y on 16 January 2019*

I bought my first Inkbird ITC 308 about a year ago after reading multiple recommendations on the home brewing forums and I put it to use controlling the temperature of my fermentation chamber (a converted fridge). It worked so well - basically you 'set it and forget it' - that I've bought a second unit to handle temperature control in my dispensing cabinet (kegerator) build.FEATURESThe idea of the Inkbird is really simple to understand. You enter the temperature you want it to maintain and you place the probe somewhere for it to measure that temperature. You enter the lowest that you're willing to tolerate the temperature being off by and if the measured temperature falls below that point it will activate the socket marked 'heating' until the measured temperature reaches your ideal point. Similarly you enter the highest temperature you want to tolerate and if the measured temperature breaches it then it will activate the socket marked 'cooling'.All you need to do is plug a heating device into the socket marked heating and a cooling device (e.g. a fridge, freezer) into the socket marked cooling. It is not mandatory to have both plugged in at the same time, for example I don't need cooling in the depths of winter so I just plug the heater in.The Inkbird has a safety feature that allows you to specify the minimum time between activating the cooling socket. Fridges and freezers can be damaged if their compressors are cycled too quickly. This feature prevents such damage, and in the event of power loss it will assume that cooling was previously on and will not reactivate it until the safety time has run down - nice.Another nice feature is that it has a buzzer alarm for high and low temperature thresholds in case your heater gets stuck on I guess. I've never used that. You can also calibrate the thermistor probe by entering an offset if you find that it drifts over time.ACCURACYI have an ETI thermocouple with recent calibration certificate that I compared my ITC 308 units to. The first one was only 0.1C off, the second one was 0.2C off. Those differences are within the margin of error of the probes. That's rather impressive and of course once I'd entered the offset into the ITC 308's calibration feature the difference was zero.EASE OF USEHold down SET. Cycle through the different options using up/down to enter the numbers. Hold down SET when you're done. All settings are remembered when the power is cut.PROBE CABLE LENGTH2 metres.BUILD QUALITYIt feels very tightly put together. All cables have tough rubber strain reliefs at the exit from the unit. There's a handy screw/cable-tie hole at the top. The plug is UK 3-pin.WARRANTY12 monthsTIPSUse the lowest power heater you can get away with. If it's too powerful you'll get overshoot as the heater will still be hot long after the power has been cut. Try to measure what it is you want to control rather than the air around it. Again this will avoid constant cycling as the air changes temperature rapidly before whatever it is you're trying to monitor 'catches up'.SUMMARYI'm super happy with mine; I guess I must be if I came back for a second one and I echo the positive comments that the other home brewers are saying about the ITC 308.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect!
*by C***R on 8 September 2024*

We've struggled to create a safe, comfortable climate for our crested gecko, but this temperature controller has finally done it! Easy to program & read, and working well at keeping the terrarium between 23-27C when combined with our infrared heat lamp.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works well, but......
*by P***  on 31 July 2023*

This was purchased to replace an old analogue type thermostat on a commercial food heater.However, to install the controller, the output sockets needed to be inside the cabinet so it meant having to disassemble the socket so that the cable could be passed through a cable gland in the panel.This required some desoldering and resoldering which was not an issue, however, whilst the item was apart, one of the plug prong recepticles just fell out (photo attached) it was supposed to be soldered onto the board but the solder had never been touched. I wouldn't like to say whether or not the recepticle was making enough contact with the board for it to be safe, but we had to solder it into place to be on the safe side.Anyway, after it was put back together and fully installed, it is working perfectly and the food warmer is maintaining a very accurate and consistent temperature all day long now.
