Fed today, and reptapet heatmat thermostat light has stopped working!!!!

[rockstar_jones]

Hi guys, I have a 7watt reptapet heatmat with the inbuilt thermostat. It has been working great for a few weeks, but this evening I went in there to check on things and the green light that flashes when it is at correct temp wont come on, even adjusting the temp. wheel back and fourth. I think it is still creating heat, and I am checking it to make sure it's still working correctly.

Has anyone else had this happen with theres?

Also, I just fed a couple of hours ago! what do I do if it fails or I need to take it back argh!?

Pm sent.

Hmmm, it still seems to be working alright, turn it up, temp goes up, turn it down, temp goes down etc.

Perhaps it's just the globe thats blown hmm.

Not too keen on getting the multimetre out and checking though...

Did your temps actually change to make you think it was not working properly?

 

[rockstar_jones]

No. No dramatic change in temp. All I noticed is that the green light no longer comes on even if I crank it right up.

I'm fairly sure now that its just the tiny light globe has blown. By now the temperature would have dropped or rose greatly if it had failed?

Exactly
