Hi,

The digital thermometer measures the air temp, while the infrared temp gun measures the surface temp. What are you using to heat the basking area? High wattage bulbs at a distance create alot of heat that will cause the air to rise and draw out moisture (dehydrate). Always better off with low wattage kept closer to the basking spot.
