Vivarium Electronics VE200 Proportional Thermostat
Reptiles have unique thermal needs based on species, behavior, and enclosure style - and the VE-200 from Vivarium Electronics steps up from basic on/off control with pulse and dimming modes, giving you the right output style for a wider range of heating elements. From heat mats and ceramic emitters to radiant heat panels, it delivers the steady, accurate control your setup calls for.
Best For
✅ Keepers who want smoother, more precise temperature control than simple on/off cycling
✅ Radiant heat panels, heat tape, heat mats, Deep Heat Projectors, and Ceramic Heat Emitters
✅ Species sensitive to temperature swings, and setups where heat source flexibility matters
Key Features
🎛️ Three Control Modes – Pulse, dim, and on/off operation to match your heat source and your animal's needs.
🔥 Broad Heat Source Compatibility – Runs heat mats, Ceramic Heat Emitters, radiant heat panels, and more.
📈 Smoother Temperature Curves – Pulse and dim modes minimize the swings of simple on/off cycling for more stable temps.
🌙 Night Drop Capable – Supports lower overnight temperatures to mimic natural day/night cycles.
🚨 Safety Shutoff Built In – Automatic protection against overheating for round-the-clock peace of mind.
🔌 700W Capacity – Plenty of headroom for single- and multi-enclosure heating setups.
