Rack/Heat Tape Not Heating Evenly, Help!

[sho220]

it is just one piece, and i didnt have to do anything special, the rack had groves for it to lock in, so you just fish it through top to bottom, and then the end sticks to the bottom and thats what plugs in to the thermostat, it came ready to go from AP pretty much

hmmm...sounds like just a bad strip of heat tape to me...

this sucks! well i cant do much about it now, i turned the thermostat down to 80 and im gonna monitor the temps closely till i can get it in a safe range and ill look more into it tomorrow

I would also shoot an email to AP and see what they have to say...

Try to get THG if they have it in the states Much better quality tape IMO, But my guess is its a issue with tape to where the connection of heating elements is broken. From top to bottom youll always have a variance, in taller racks but 3 bin it should all be 100% the same, if you probed it in the middle.
