    The probe works fine. thats on the warm side. reading about 90degrees. its the cool side that has dropped. i have a 20 degree difference. i know if hew gets cold he will move to the hot side, but i dont want it to drop too much.

    what about trying a different battery or different accurite? it cant hurt to try, right?

    when i was setting up my incubator I couldnt for the life of me figure out why the 2 egg tubs were way off from each other.. come to find out the sticky thing that holds it down came off so the sensor was off. Weather it needs that sticky on there to work correctly or something happened to it from being exposed, im not sure. But i got another and the temps are dead on.

    Yeah i tried that. same reading. i also have the analog thermometeres on the glass, it also reads low. So i know the acurite is working. I would hate to get a CHE. I just got my humidity to 60%. i dont want to bring it down as well. Possibley another UTH?
