    Minimum Cool Side Temps

    In my new RBI CB70 rack I have the hot spot perfect with 90f on top of the substrate 92f below. But my cool sides running 76f-79 which seems to be fluctuating I assume depending on the temp in the room.

    Are these cool side temps fine? Or do I need to find a way to increase them?

    As long as it doesn't dip too much lower on the cool side then your temps are fine.

    Awesome, if only I could find a way to put a power outlet into my walk in closet in this apartment and I would be set. The temps in there are staying 5 degrees warmer than the rest of the apartment.

    Re: Minimum Cool Side Temps



    I like the chart, as it shows a good range, but wouldn't we really want to know the average high and low temps of rodent burrows and termite mounds?
    I think it would be a bit cooler underground than these temps show.
