    Have a problem and need help!!!!!

    Hi guys.....I am hoping someone on here can help me.

    Ok I bought a CB 70 rack from Reptile basics and I bought a temp gun from them as well. First of all....I have changed the batteries on the gun...so that is not the problem.

    I also have a herpstat (the little one with 3 grounded plugs and 1 probe).

    I set up the rack and taped the probe down on the heat tape under the middle bin. I set the thermostat at 93 ....I haven't put the snakes in yet as I am trying to get it perfect. The problem is when I run the gun over it there are places in the hot side of the bin that reads 96 and 98 degrees. Just in a couple of the bin squares though....but it is like this in each bin. Again it is only in a couple of small areas...but still. I have been adjusting the temp for about a week now and just lowered it to 92.5

    Also I have set up the bins with paper towels and also put in a bowl of water to see what the humidity is going to be. Right now it is only running about 36%.

    I am just at a loss here as I am trying to make sure it is running perfect prior to putting the snakes in.

    Sorry for the long post....just need some help.
