acu rite humidity and temperature controler

[NEAR775]

so since those stick on anologs temperature/humidity gages are garbage i went and got one of those indoor/outdoor/humidity digital gages and idk understand how it measures the temps/hum with one probe so does anyone have this and if so were should the probe go for in my set up

[mpkeelee]

The probe is out side temp. The unit itself has temp and humidity gauge inside for the inside temp

You put the probe under the hot side hide, put the unit itself on the cool side. The probe will measure hot side temps as "Outside" and cool side temps and humidity as "Inside".

EDIT: Also wanted to clarify, the Accu-rite is not a temperature CONTROLLER as your post title states. The accu-rite is a thermoMETER, only used to measure temps, not to control them.

"yes the temps are a little off I just set up the QT tank and it was stabilizing"

Probe on the hot side under the hide. The unit itself is the cool side thermometer. It should really be on the floor of the enclosure as well since that is the temperature you want to measure.
