Thanks for all the feed back.
The Won heater I have now is the worst I have had, but I like the TI rod instead of glass.
The Ebo Jager sounds like it's been ok for people I'll have to check it out.
I do have and aquacontroller to run the heater, so I should program it in.
I just always worried about setting a heater thermastat so high that it's on all the time waiting for the controller to call on it.

P.S. Pecan I have a few guys that do the CT/NY work thing and they say it's not so bad but I don't know much about it.

I'm with Herman on the use of more than 1 heater. I find the idea of NEVER having to worry that the tank is going to fry very appealing (been there, done that).
EJ's are great heaters.

I just got a fishcue 250w with an LCD readout which reads 3 degrees below actual. The heater part works fine but I have to send it back for calibration.

Ebo Jager ROCKS!!! That in conjunction with a controller and you have no chance of cooking. I use 2 smaller heater on the Reefkeeper 2 so even if one heater decides to fail the other will still go. Two thermostats have to blow simultaneously for me to get screwed.
