Why not just use electrical tape for eveything?



But, yes, set the thermostat to control the flex-watt, not the inside of the cage. If I want a 90 degree hot spot in my bins in my racks, I set the thermostat to 95, with the probe lying on the tape. Once the heat reached the bin and through the substrate there is a 5 degree drop (also the tape is recessed in the shelf).



I do know you can get longer probes for the thermostat. Un-screwing the back panel will show a small plug at the end of the probe, the probe just plugs right into the housing of the thermostat.
