Habistat Dimming thermostat

A question about a dimming thermostat:
I set it at 30c and i have a 60 watt bulb in im really confused i thought a thermostat is to keep it at a right temperature...
Its about 33c now and i notice the thermostat light is always on... maybe im worrying about nothing but is this normal lol i even put the thermostat down to 20c to see if the light goes off but it doesnt its always on?
Is it faulty or?

Hello, I've got a twin habistat and the knobs are not working the lights are on but not regulating the temperature......faulty me thinks! Had to buy another one, but single one this time.

So I think yours is faulty too x
