check to make sure thermostat can take the amps of the (light/heater) you are wiring in place. If not (&the preferred method) is to use a relay. relay has 2sides, each is a switch. Larger amps side is for the load (whatever you are running) other side is thermostat. difference is thermostat circuit will power a small electromagnet (most common & cheapest type of relay) that closes the mechanical (internal) switch on the load side. This is how small circuits can run large loads without damage. Homemade Incubator, Egg Incubator, Lamp Kit, Handy Woman, Screw Driver, Stick It Out, Water Heater, Thermostat, Coop
