    question on flexwatt

    I just did my rack with flexwatt and a herpestad thermostat, and Im measuring each panel and there are 2 that are heating about 3 degrees below the other two, is these normal? I wired them in parallel but they are not heating equally, any info would be great.
    thanks

    There often is a difference between the top and bottome shelf which is normal.

    How many shelves do you have and where is your probe?

    Re: question on flexwatt

    I've always heard to put the probe in the middle of your rack. It may be a degree or two off from the top to bottom but it will give you a better average than putting it on top or bottom alone.
    Success is just one decision, one commitment and a whole lot of hard work away…
