Suggestions for a temp controlled submersible heater?

I see Cobalt mentioned, but what size?

Room may hit 65 in dead winter

I have a cobalt 150 in my biocube. Way overkill, but I got it for a song from someone on these boards. 100W is all you would need. If you don't have a controller, cobalt also makes a nice external heater controller, the Neo-Stat. With a heater it's not IF it will fail, but when, and having something else as a backup to shut it off if it gets stuck on is a good thing.

One other thing nice about the neo-therm heaters, they are super slim and fit nicely in the pocket between the second and third chambers.

+1 on the neo-therm heaters.
