Default habistat or microclimate which do you prefer

i have used habistat in the past but switched to a microclimate themostate and found them to be brill as every thing is built in to the unit unlike habitistat where you have to buy extra gear for the night time temp drop . i just wondered what everybody else preferred

the microclimate themostat i use is dl2 with magic eye for the night time temp drop .built in alarm. a sensor to adjust the magic eye for the night settings

I use pulse stats from both companies, and while I reckon the Habistat pulse stats are maybe a tiny bit more accurate than the Microclimate pulses, I prefer the design of the Microclimates due to the lack of a knob, the presence of a power indicator LED, and the price
