Here's a ranking of the top rated products in this category. To give you a quick overview, we've also added some key information about the products.
1. Exo Terra Heat Mat 4W size XS
Heating mats for glass terrariums. Ideal for all glass terrariums. For mounting underneath or on the side of terrariums, rubber spacers are included. Conductive heat source for reptiles, amphibians, spiders, or planted terrariums. Contributes to temperature regulation, which is important for metabolism, digestion, appetite, and activity. Safe, even heat distribution. Ultra-thin and self-adhesive. Reptiles and amphibians are cold-blooded animals and often use sun-warmed surfaces as a heat source in their natural habitat. The Exo Terra Heat Mat mimics these sun-warmed surfaces. It is an ideal primary or secondary 24-hour heat source for tropical reptiles and amphibians or for reptiles and amphibians from temperate zones. Additionally, it serves as an important heat source during the night for many desert species. The heating mat can be permanently attached to the terrarium. The strong adhesive ensures optimal heat transfer. The Exo Terra Heat Mat can be used in conjunction with an Exo Terra thermostat and/or additional heat sources for reptiles and amphibians with higher temperature needs. The surface temperature of the heating mats ranges from 30 °C to 34 °C at an ambient temperature of 18.5 °C, but the temperature may vary depending on the conditions under which it is used.
2. Exo Terra Desert heating plate
Heating plates for terrariums
The Exo Terra Heat Wave Heating Plate Desert is designed to create optimal conditions in a safe and secure way inside the terrarium. The heating plate is suitable for bottom-dwelling reptiles when installed under the terrarium.

3. Exo Terra Combometer
The digital Exo Terra Thermo-Hygrometer is a 2-in-1 precision instrument for accurate measurements of temperature and relative humidity with a combined remote sensor. This precision instrument features a minimum/maximum temperature and humidity memory setting that can be programmed with just one button. The digital thermo-hygrometer is stable and easy to use, and it can be installed using Velcro.
4. Exo Terra 300 W thermostat
Reptiles are ectothermic and need heat from an external source in order to optimally regulate their body temperature. Most reptiles utilise both the direct heat radiated by the sun and the transferred heat from surfaces that have been warmed by the sun, such as branches, rocks or other heat-retaining structures. Creating such a species-appropriate temperature gradient in a terrarium is an important factor for successful reptile husbandry. With the Exo Terra electronic thermostat (ON/OFF, 100W/300W) you can create a well-controlled heat system. It allows you to maintain the required temperature conditions similar to those in a desert or tropical environment. The thermostat also helps to prevent overheating on hot summer days or overcooling on cold winter nights. The electronic triac switch keeps the temperature at the set value and prevents temperature fluctuations in the terrarium. Connect your substrate heater, heat cable or ceramic heater to the Exo Terra Thermostat, set the desired temperature and place the heat sensor in the desired location. The red LED heat indicator lights up when the heater is heating and switches off when the desired temperature has been reached. The thermostat's recessed switch prevents accidental temperature changes when the appliance is touched. The waterproof remote sensor can easily be used in very humid terrariums and aquatic environments.

9. Exo Terra Monsoon Solo II
The Exo Terra Monsoon Solo is a programmable misting system suitable for all terrariums and greenhouses. This system helps maintain optimal humidity by producing rainfall at programmed times. The duration and frequency of rainfall can be easily adjusted to suit the needs of the animals kept or the plants. Frequent rainfall helps to stimulate breeding behaviour. It is also necessary if you keep live tropical plants such as bromeliads, orchids, mosses, etc. The system can be programmed to rain several times in a 24 hour period and over a period of 2 seconds to 2 minutes at a time. The large 1.5 litre reservoir ensures uninterrupted operation for several days without the need to refill water (ideal for holidays). In addition, the reservoir can be easily refilled without having to disassemble the entire system. The Exo Terra Monsoon Solo is equipped with an easy to install spray nozzle, but can be extended with an additional spray nozzle, making it ideal for two terrariums. (Please note that each additional nozzle means less output at each individual nozzle). The rain produced by the specially designed spray nozzles is extremely fine and creates a mist-like effect in the terrarium or greenhouse. The extra long hoses make it possible to hide the system in a storage area or cabinet under the terrarium.
10. Exo Terra Monsoon Multi II
