    Right, that might have been a little confusing. I taped the thermostat probe directly to the flexwatt on the warm side.

    I played with it some more last night (that's what she said) and got it where I want it. The warm side is ~92-93 and the cool side is ~82-83. I'm going to put a piece of tape over the dimmer to keep it in position and I think I'm gtg.

Some tubs have a gap between the bottom and the ground, but I would think the spacer feet of the tub would rake over the cord as well? I guess pictures would be helpful here. I know for people with a continuous piece of flexwatt woven through their rack, they can just put the probe on the flexwatt on the side of the rack, not under the tub, which is great if you have that kind of setup.

    I superglued little feet to the bottom of my tub just for this reason.

    How much space should there be between the bottom of the tank (where the UTH is taped) and the surface where the tank is sitting?
