Hey
I received my RBI cage today in the mail. It took only eight days...the website said a minimum of ten days before it actually shipped. What a surprise wen a huge box was given to me.

The cage was nicely packed and the finishing is flawless. My heating choice was the 80 watt radiant heat panel.

I used a pen to stretch out one of the vent holes to put my herpstat probe through. I pushed it through and let it hang halfway down. I put a thermometer in the middle of the cage under the RHP and a thermometer on top of the cold side hide. It took only about 1 hour to get the temps right. The thermometer underneath the RHP is reading 91.5 but my herpstat is reading 84.8....weird right?? I would of thought of it the other way around. So this stresses how even with a thermostat a thermometer must be used on the side. My cold side is at 80F. I also picked up the RBI hides which are really nice imo. I also paid for the fluorescent light which I kinda regret. because.the on/off switch is on the inside of the tank. I was hoping for it to be on the chord itself so I can turn it on/off as I please.but I just unplug/plug it in for now.

and of course...Here are pics


As you can see from the picture below. You can see my herpstat probe on the wall and my reg thermometer probe running under the newspaper and I cut a little slit so the probe sticks out on top of the newspaper. so I don't have wired running everywhere.

Any thoughts?? I dunno if my probes are in the right place...or are they???
