    when I pull my tub out to do maintainence, the temps will drop in that particular tub. When i put it back in, the probe will still be reading around 93 on the flexwatt, and won't give any power, so that tub will continue to have a lower temp....make sence?

    Nate,
    You really have nothing to worry about. When you pull that tub out, yes, it will cool down. It doesn't need additional power to heat back up. It may take just a little while for it to stabilize, but nothing is hurt by that.

    I just set up my first commercially produced rack. Its from Animal Plastics, and uses cable for the heat. I really like flexwatt better, but oh well. My point to this is, it comes with a "trough" routed into one of the shelves for the thermostat probe. Puts it right in behind the heat cable.
