Questions & Answers for Zoo Med Zoo Med HygroTherm Humidity & Temperature Controller
Question
How does it actually work?
I'm currently fighting with the ReptiFogger, it makes the tank way to humid, I then have to turn it off and that drops it WAY down. I got this because I work during the day and can't keep fighting with it. The problem is I have a locking tank for my Ball Python. I was able to attach the Fogger hose to the top of the screen but now I'm wondering, if I get this, how would I get it in my tank? I was looking at a picture of it on another site and it shows wires with large ends so I won't be able to cut a hole in the lid without cutting one to big.

Granted I use mine for hermit crabs, I do have a screen lid on my tank. I understand your problem. I place the sense in the tank where I need it to go then cram the lid on. The lid closes snug still and is not a problem. Another option would be for you to slide the sensor through the hold that you are using for your reptifogger then place your reptifogger in behind it. The sense cable is not very thick.

First of all, I suggest using a timer if you are not interested in getting or can not afford the HygroTherm Humidity & Temperature Controller. I managed to get around this by simply making cuts to the top mesh of the lid. If you can not do this, there are many other ways you can manage, including terrariums with spaces reserved for these types of devices for easier use. Either way, the fogger creates fog which makes it humid on a high to low basis, it does NOT regulate the times if the lowest setting is still too high. In that case, the HygroTherm Humidity & Temperature Controller is necessary. Though I would recommend it anyways as this device makes regulating temp and humidity as easy as a 5 minute setup!

Question
Where is the best place to put the sensor? Would be nice if the 2 sensors were on seperate cables.

answer 2
I drop mine down in the middle of the enclosure and let it hang just off of the Crabitat floor. while the reptifogger drops fog in from the far right top. This offers my hermit crabs the option of getting closer to the fogger for a more humid setting, or to go to the other side for a less humid setting. Either way, I can read the humidity right in the middle and know that at that point it is just right. I don't mind the heat sensor being combined with the humidity. I don't see where I would place it anywhere except right beside the humidity sensor anyway.

There are 6 outlets on the unit but they are controlled by only one sensor. That would be the only thing I would love to see as an improvement. I like having the sensor close to the bottom on the back of my terrarium but I wish I could put a separate one on the floor for the heat mat to be controlled separately. We do this by using a sparate heat controller on the heat mat and using the lamp in the unit.
