    temperature control?

    Can anyone recommend a good thermostat? Those advertised for reptiles are a little pricey. I'll buy them if I have to, but it would be better if I could buy one that's less expensive and gets the job done. I'll take any recommendations. I would want to use the thermostat on a che. Thanks in advance!
