Got it figured out
After picking a few brains in my "Heat Management" post a couple days ago, I've got it up and running. Thanks for the advice given, and here's what I've done with some of it plus where I'm headed.
To solve the humidity issue, I used Eco Earth since from all my searches throughout the interwebs its about the most humid substrate out there. Plus I cut a piece of plexiglass to cover about 2/3 of the screen top. I didn't seal it in so that I can move/adjust it as need be to help manage humidity. I ran the enclosure snake free for close to 48 hours, and I'm sitting @ 62% without adding or removing anything.


After learning about RHPs, I did a ton of homework. Very cool technology, and I will be ordering one along with a VE-100 t-stat after Christmas.
Until then I'm heating with a 60w CHE, and a small UTH pad to create a hotspot. I'm currently running one digital thermometer/hygrometer and one analog because the local shops I checked were sold out. I'll replace the analog as soon as they restock.
Aside from that, I've got 3 hides, a large water bowl, and a nice piece of drift wood for aesthetics, and to add extra places to climb/hide.
Last but not least, Fed-ex delivered our male lemon blast mojave this afternoon. My only disappointment in all of this is it has to be hidden in my bedroom closet until the kids go to bed Christmas eve I can't wait to bring this set up our for everyone in the house to enjoy!

Laziness is nothing more than the habit of resting before you get tired.

Good job!
Beautiful snake too.
The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.
