I had an idea that one of the heaters was not working fully it had heat but not enough to even warm you hand.
Thank goodness for the second one.

I also carry a spare heater.

Now I am looking for two more high quality heaters I can buy online. The old working one will now become the spare.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

My last heaters were Rena which is now the working spare & 2 Seras the sera lasted 4+ years

Ive had visitherm heaters last more than 7 years, usually in the bigger wattages.

I've been working with a Rena for about 7 years, and Sicce for about 6 (from someone else who'd been running them for about a year or so). Not sure if the Sicce ones have dropped in quality since I got them, but the price has taken a dive.

It looks like I will go to Jager thanks to FP member on CHAT I have been able to get an excellent price well below any one else.

Jager.... hands down...one of the best, if not the best and affordable!!can't remember one I've ever had fail...I usually have to upgrade to a higher wattage due to larger tank volumes and keep the smaller ones as back-up but usually end up giving those to someone that needed one because theirs broke-fowled-burned up-or whatever...

Most of the models I have say they are not submersible but have found out accidentally that they seem to be water-tight anyway, or maybe I just got lucky, and the double suction cup heater clip is awsome, either black or grey, good neutral colors that do NOT stain with dye-based meds like the clear silicone cups.

The thermostat is adjustable and can be "calibrated" and once set, no worries !!

I don't think you'll be disappointed if you do decide to invest in a jager.

Happy Shopping !!
