Ketotek PID Dimming Thermostat For Terrariums

If you need reliable temperature control for a terrarium or vivarium, this PID dimming thermostat is designed to keep heating steady while also handling timed switching of lighting or pumps. It functions as a reptile thermostat that reduces rapid on/off cycling and gives you separate control of a heating output and a timer output for accessories.

PID dimming technology adjusts power smoothly as the enclosure approaches the set temperature, which reduces overshoot and avoids abrupt temperature swings common with basic on/off controllers. The unit supports two daily temperature cycles across a 24 hour period so you can set different day and night temperatures and start times. There is also a time-controlled outlet with two programmable periods each day for lights, oxygen pumps or other equipment. Powered for 220V mains with a control range from 0 to 50°C and a 2 metre waterproof temperature probe, it keeps settings after power loss and includes a large LCD, adjustable backlight, alarms and temperature calibration for practical monitoring and setup.

Use this controller where stable heating matters, for example basking setups run by heat lamps or ceramic heaters and enclosures that need distinct day and night regimes. For accurate readings place the waterproof probe near the animal’s usual basking area or where you want the temperature regulated, but not directly on the heat source. The separate timer output also makes it useful for mixed setups that combine heating with timed lighting or pumps in humid or aquatic-edge vivaria.
