    Thermostat placement

    So where do you guys recomend placing the probes for your thermostat and thermometer. Right now I have them both right next to each other on the bottom of the tub under the newspaper. The Acurite is reading 86.5 while the Newtek Thermostat is set to almost 100. I know its kinda a cheap thermostat but I didn't think it would be that bad. I'm just trying to control a piece of flexwatt right now.

    I have the thermostat, acurite thermometer, and a IR temp gun to use in monitoring temps. Do those who use acurites actually peel off the white paper and stick it in a certain spot?
