I have 3 of these thermostats, a 50 watt, a 75 watt, and a 100 watt. They were really easy to set up and have never strayed from the temp I set them at. I’ve owned them for over 6 months and never had a problem. I’d highly recommend this if you need the temp to stay at a temp such as 80 degrees for a pet that likes a certain temp.
My Eheim is doing its job and keeps the temperature at 25 Celsius in a 90 gal. tank. It is fully submersible and that is good. Partly devices submersible encourage lime build up on the outside margins. I have hard water. In my Eheim I noticed a slight discrepancy between the temperature on the dial and the reading on the outside thermometer reads. I adjust the dial on the heater to get the desired temperature: 25 Cel. The outside thermometer(essential) gives a precise reading . This discrepancy does not bother me. In the past I had Tetra and Eheim thermometers and both lasted 2-3 years
I worked in the pet shop business for years. We always used this brand of heater in our shop display tanks. They always worked great, and lasted a long time. Unfortunately, the one I got appears to be working, but it's not heating the water. I'm bummed.
I have eheim jager heaters in my tanks. Very nice heaters.
Initially, this heater worked great. It kept the fishtank nice and warm, and our fish were doing very well. Then our fish slowly started dying. Our water parameters were good, but we still did a 50% change. Then, the rest of our fish were dead the following day. We deep cleaned the tank and put everything back, and then my husband inspected all of the elements in the tank- the gravel, the decor, the bubblers, the water pump, etc. He noticed that there was a crack in the heater, and water had gotten into it. We are not too sure whether or not this was the cause of our fish suddenly dying, but we're not taking any chances with our next batch of fish.
I have been using these heaters for about 4 years and they have never failed me. They are basic and high quality.
I gave this a 5 star because it deserves it. I set the temp turned the red dial back to set, perfect temp!
The heater works gine, but it hard to turn control to calibrate and adjust temp.
This heater works great. I ordered one for my 38 gallon bowfront. And one for my 55 gallon. Both working great
This brand has always worked well for me, though they can be difficult to calibrate at first. I do find they always run a bit high and need recalibration, I have both the 50watt and 150watt versions for two different tanks. My 50watt version is almost 10 years old and still going strong! Definitely worth buying.
