MVB Question

[Desi1031]

Is it a bad idea to put a MVB on a thermostat?

 

[jaizei]

Most likely, yes it would be a bad idea.

 

[jtrux]

Yep, bad idea.

The problem, I would think, comes from the constant on/off cycle of heating. Mvb's are for providing a source of UVA/UVB and light with the bonus of producing a hot spot for basking. Not as a heat source. This too would be a problem for a proper day/night cycle.
