In this note we study the asymptotic limit of large variance in a stochastically perturbed thermostat model, the Nos\'{e}-Hoover-Langevin device. We show that in this limit, the model reduces to a Langevin equation with one-dimensional Wiener process, and that the perturbation is in the direction of the conjugate momentum vector. Numerical experiments with a double well potential corroborate the asymptotic analysis.
