	Rena-Cal heaters.
Dempsey fan Mega Fish Posts: 915 Kudos: 201 Votes: 3 Registered: 02-Aug-2000	Has anyone ever used a Rena-Cal heater? All of my heaters are Tronics and I love them but I recently set up a small 12 gallon Eclipse tank for show and I wanted to get a cheap heater for it so I went ahead and ordered a Rena-Cal, only 15 bucks, didn't wanna spend close to 40 on a Tronic. Anyway, just wondered if anyone has had any luck with them.

The dial is off by 1-2 degrees, but its only a guide anyway. I think Koi had an issue with one sticking ON, but i could be wrong.

I ordered it online so I think that is why it was so cheap. I got it for 15 bucks plus like 10 shipping. It's only a 60 watter. Anyway, thanks for the input. By the way, does anyone hear besides me use/like Tronic heaters?
