I've been reading some post on this but haven't got a clear answer yet.
My belly heat on the hot side inside the hide is kept between 90-95 degrees. The "air temp" is around 80-83 on the hot side. (Cool side temps are ok 80-85). Should the air temp also be 90-95 or is this just for the belly heat temp??

No, your air temp do not need to be in the 90s F. Why is your air temp on your "cool" side slightly higher than your "hot" side?

I got the temps mixed, sorry... I came home tonight and the temp on the hot side was 79 and cool side temp was 79 belly temp was 93. Is this warm enough and is it enough of a gradient??
