Poland-based Aqua El has recently released a sleek new line of shatterproof, thermoregulated aquarium heaters with the Neo Heater line that is already shipping in the UK and Europe. Ranging in sizes from 25W to 200W, the Neo Heater has a unique, flat design made from shatterproof plastic featuring a microprocessor thermostat and a thermometer giving you a more accurate control over your tank’s temperature. The flat plastic shape comes in at a mere 9mm on the 200W model allowing it to blend in easily within your tank. The heater’s one-touch temperature setting lets you set the temperature by just pressing the button with the desired temperature shown on an a circle of LEDs on the heater’s face. Another LED indicates your tank’s current temperature and will give you a visual warning when the tank temperature is higher than what is set. Additionally they are equipped with a thermal switch protecting the device from overheating in case of leaving it out of the water. The Neo Heater is running around £23.95-26.95 ($39-45) depending on the size. No word yet when the units will begin to appear in the US. Follow the break for a few more specifications.
