I'm surprised that Finnex isn't a little higher, but i use both of those and have no complaints. I think the difference is that any Jager will do great, but the Finnex Digital is the way to go IMO

I believe that is because they were the top of the line heater before some of the others even started coming out.
I used Ebo Jagger heaters more than 25 years ago. Those first heaters were broken because they were glass long before they quit working.

I have digital thermometers in my tank and in my sump , watch temps. Closely and you can catch any problems before it becomes a real problem. I use ehiem 300 watt in my sump and a 400 watt in DT both set at 79 degrees, but I monitor temps three are four times a day , just had my temp jump 2 degrees in two days and had my heater in my DT fail to the on position , had spare replaced it and all is good again , monitor temp. Regularly. IMO

I use Eheim Jager. I would like to get two smaller ones and a controller before it goes and I loose everything (knock on wood).
