Can you daisy chain 2,3 or 4 together "power" ? or would I have to plug into 2,3 4 outlets, also how many thermostats would I need for 4 mats ?

These mats do NOT daisy chain together, so each one needs a plug. How many you can run off of one thermostat depends on the max wattage on your thermostat. Each mat runs on 105 watts.So if the max wattage of your thermostat is 300 you would need 2 thermostats to run 4 of these mats

I would expect to need to power the independently, with individual thermostats. That said, it really depends on the power capabilities of the thermostat vs the power requirements of the heating mats. As long as the thermostat is rated for more watts than the attached matts are drawing then you will be fine, but most of then are not designed to run more than a single matt. Also you would run the risk of one matt being hotter than others and burning your seedlings, as you only get one heat probe per thermostat.

We had 2 heat mat and had them plugged into a extension cord with a three plug end. we didn't use a thermostat on ours and it kept it plenty warm. we use a light on a timer coming on at 6 and going off at 6. We use light bulbs called daylight in a T8 size . Hope this helps you

No, you cannot daisy chain these together. The cords are 6 ft. long so you can run a couple into the same outlet, assuming you set them up next to each other. And you don't need thermostats as they are self regulating.

You can use multiple sensors. I don't know what the maximum is, but it's more than one. You can include/exclude them in the average used to determine how the thermostat cycles. That's an all-or-nothing setting. I.e., unlike the Hunter 44665 I replaced, you can't set it to use only certain remote sensors for one cycle, but use a different sensor for a different cycle. (I had set the Hunter to use the bedroom sensor in the AM and the family room sensor in the afternoon/evening cycle.)

John: No. This kit is designed for a single zone (multi stage system--this description often confuses people. multi-stage refers to differing heat and or HVAC levels---not number of zones in the house). The included interface panel is installed at the equipment and serves one zone only. If you have a home with 3 zones and 3 separate HVAC units, then you would need 3 kits (be careful here because the wireless signal of each unit might bleed over and cause problems with the others). If however you have a home with one HVAC unit running 3 separate zones (which is rare in a residential set-up) then you need to change out your existing Zone controller at the equipment and go to the Honeywell Truezone Panel. Honeywell does make a wireless adaptable Truezone System (not sold on Amazon). For a one plant multi-zone system you would need the Truezone panel, wireless Multizone interface and the required number of wireless thermostats. No sure Amazon sells all you need. I would strongly recommend a simple call to Honeywell Customer/Tech support and lay out what you are trying to accomplish. Be careful how you ask the question. The Honeywell unit Amazon sells is designated (by model number) as one that should only be installed by a professional HVAC tech (of which I am not). When I called about my unit, they would not answer once I told them I was not a HVAC contractor. I got around it by calling again a fibbing a little. Alternatively, you could try searching the model number and calling one of the vendors (ie SupplyHouse) as they offer free technical advice--but not as good a price as Amazon. Lastly, unless I had much experience with HVAC systems, I would not attempt installing this unit in a multi-zone system with professional HVAC help. Good Luck, Steve

there is 1 outlet that controls 4 other switched outlets, there are 2 other constant-always on power outlets.

I know this is an old question, but two people answered Yes and that is not correct. I bought two of these units (for a multi-unit property) and my thermostat wire bundle only had 2 wires- red and white. This thermostat requires a C (Common) wire for continuous power, else it will run off the batteries and they will die every two weeks. I had an electrician run a new line of 5 wire cable and pulled out the 2 wire run. If you buy this thermostat, you need 3 wires for heat only, or 5 wires if you have heat and a/c.. either way, you need a C wire for continuous power.

You could probably daisy chain them if the total current draw doesn't exceed the rated capacity of the unit.

This is USB3. My guess is you cannot do the daisy chain. Use a USB hub instead.(rear panel connectors: 1 power and 1 USB. Nothing more).

Hi. I have not connected 2 of them to each other. What I have is ONE extension/surge protector and 2 Nugiant connected to it. One on each night table next to my bed. This allows us to connect our devices on night tables to power overnight

You can connect in parallel where all the connections go to the thermostat but you also need to verify the maximum amperage drawn from a single point. You need to follow the manufacturer's very detailed installation guide on their website. This manufacturer does NOT recommend or provide option to connect another mat at the end of the first one nor cutting one short. Another brand similar to this provides kit to cut and seal the ends, etc. Sorry but I can't remember the name but they have been in business much longer but not as easily found on google due to Thermosoft's popularity.

Yes the unit can be daisy chained to put them in series. 2 switches. Run 4 bulbs each. Excellent unit.

No, its just add 6 outlets where you have 2 now. Remember not to overload outlet just because there 6 slots.

I haven't done it myself and I'm not an electrician, but it looked very possible. From memory the instructions showed how to connect an additional mat. As far as a 110V GFCI I believe you can feed up to three different outlets, so 2-3 mats shouldn't be too much of a load. I hope this is helpful too you.

You only need one as they pack a punch! You can daisy chain a few together though if you want to cover multiple rooms/areas. I put this in the center of my apartment and can usually here it in all the rooms of a 1 bedroom apt.

I plugged 2 large mats and 1 step mat into one outlet using extension cords. Although they said not to use extension cords, the mats come with extremely short little cords and you really don't have a choice. I plugged one into the top outlet with the temperature sensor and the other plugged into the bottom of the outlet. It is a regular house current and the breaker is either 15 or 20 amps and never tripped. If you have a unique situation you may need to consult an electrician. The rugs worked great for us, but wished they were a little bigger with longer cords in relationship to the cost.

Depends on your system. The manual states that this thermostat is for two wire systems (not counting a C or C1 wire). This does not work for 3 wire systems and list an 800 number for Honeywell Customer Service to call and check. I would list the number but Amazon would likely delete it.

Only 2 wires are conected inside One wire is sniped short that wire you won't use the other 2 you can hook up anyway you want as it is ac I hope this helped good luck

You need at least two room units and the master interface module. Look for the offered kit with three or four room units and the module with power supply. Very versatile system but the room units are interfaced to the master via standard cat5 data wiring. Two room unit alone will not work without the master module
