all the bulbs are on the hot side.the wall you can see is 12 feet away from the front of the cage.Most of the lights are on the back wall and then there are 3 on each side but there also on the back 5 feet of the cage.Its not really dark in there at all,except on the cool side its darker.

The cool side got up to 78 degrees yesterday and the humidity is still around 80% on the cool side.

You can see in the picture but there is wire mess separating the 2 sides of the cage right where the plywood is that you can see going down the middle of the cage.and there are pieces of plywood under the lights on top of the leaves with a surface temp of 95 through 110 degrees.The substrate under the plywood where the surface temp is 95 is around 85 degrees.the temp of the leaves was NOT taken directly under the lights but about 2 feet away.

Do you have any idea if I can put the kane heat pad in its side running down the plywood separator?It says on there site that you dont lose heat through the bottom of that pad so Im not sure if Ill get heat to both sides of the cage if I mount it that way.
