So I picked myself up an acu rite thermometer today. I placed it into the girls tank, and wholey heck! Her UTH temp was up around 123 degrees f. Needless to say, I unplugged it. I do plan to get a dimmer, and will be getting one next pay check. Which is in about a week. As of right now, her tank is an ambient of 82(UTH side) to 84(lamp side). With a humidity of 80%. I know I don't have a "basking" spot, that will be where the uth is once I get the dimmer, and I'll turn off the lamp all together, because the temp in my room currently is at 80 something by it's self with the window closed.

So my questions are: Will this be okay for her until I get the dimmer? I have nothing else to really use as heat for a "basking" spot until the dimmer.

Should I just all together unplug the lamp, and only turn it on at night when my window is open? Even though it's nice for her, it's to hot for me, but it's to cold out for me to turn off the lamp and have the window open.
