the temps are a bit off...ideally the temps should be about 83 on the cool side and 92-94 on the warm side (and i would cast the opinion of never dropping below 80 ever. this is bc you can run a risk of respiratory infection with low temps).

i would suggest getting a thermostat for the heating units. with a thermostat, you also wont get such large temperature swings.

i use a zoomed 500R that you can get for about $30, but there are many brands.
