Nice Heater
This is my first Enheim/Jager heater and so far I'm very happy with it. It holds a steady temp (+/- 1) and has been reliable thus far. The ability to re-calibrate the heater (while confusing at first if you neglect to read the instructions like I did) is a nice feature and an uncommon one. Another nice feature is the run dry protection, the heater automatically shuts off when it's out of water. I tested this feature as soon as I received the unit because I have a nasty habit of doing water changes and forgetting to unplug my equipment and the feature works as advertised.
For some reason, the product description has the dimensions listed as 1" x 1" x 1". While that would be awesome and I'd pay 4 times the price for the reliable heater that size, the unit is actually 9" long (23cm). I had to look this info up on another site prior to purchasing, because size does matter sometimes.
I would recommend this heater. FYI I'm using it on a ~7 gallon (~26L).
Great Heater
In response to the previous comment, these heaters are top of the line. A 1 degree difference is not significant so you're just splitting hairs buddy. For lack of a better word the heater is perfect, been working flawlessly for the last 4 years, no complaints here.
Long, but works well.
This heater is great! I have been wanting one for my 2.5 gallon betta tank, but most thermometers for a tank that small are unregulated. I was going to get the 25 watt heater, but it was just as big as this one and only a few dollars less. Therefore, I went with this one because I could also put it in a bigger tank. It keeps the temperature from fluctuating very well, even when put in the tank diagonally. Just keep in mind, in a tank this small the dial will have to be significantly below the desired temp. to get it where you actually want it. But it works well, I would definitely recommend it.
