I just found a care sheet that I had from a while ago that recommended
"Heating, Humidity and Lighting

A day time high of 82-85F appears to be ideal for this species, ideally with a cool end around 10F lower (75F). Temperatures much above 85F seem to provoke heat stress in this species and should be avoided."

So according to this I have the cage Hot side too hot. What do others keep their cages/vivariums at?
