I don't think that there are any kings that would normally choose to be at 85 all the time.
My snake room has a large window that stays open 24/7. It frequently gets down to the 60s at night. The heaters are always on too. So during the day the gradient is maybe 75-90 and at nights (depending on the temps outside) its probably 65-80. These are cal kings that I am talking about.
My snakes eat like pigs and I frequently find them on the COLD side in the mornings. Usually not after a huge meal, but sometimes. In my experience, cal kings prefer to be at around 70 unless they have just eaten or are gravid etc.
