I understand the discrepency. I have been told its better to put the thermostat probe directly on the flexwatt and use a thermometer to measure temps inside cage & then calibrate. My question is why on this tubs setup do I set the thermostat to 82 degrees yet get a temp inside tubs of 89-90 when on my normal tanks & cages I normaly would set the thermostat to 89 or higher to have to achieve the desired temps inside teh cage. One time I had it set to 78 degrees and the thermometer probe measured 90.
