Though the dimming thermostat can also be used with heat mats or ceramic heaters it won t be quite as effective as a pulse thermostat so we would only really use this for basking light. If you want a constant surface temperature for example a hatchling snake rack then the pulse proportional offers very accurate control and a continually warm mat rather than a hot cold cycle.
