Hey everyone,
Sorry for bringing up a old post but I was hoping for a few more opinions on this topic. I currently Have my thermostat probe placed on the heat tape like Picture B. I've tried having it like Picture A but from what i gather from the two, The way the probe is on picture A, i have to set the thermostat to around 110 + in order for the temperatures to reach around 90-94 degrees in the tubs. My concern with having my t-stat probe like this is that one day i'll wake up and see that the heat tape really did reach 110 and i'll be cooking my snakes. Now with picture B. I set the thermostat to 95 and i get the temperature at that temperature or just a few degrees lower BUT i've notice that the top two tubs are a lot warmer than the lower ones. So the temperatures are not as even. How do most people have there probe set up on their heat tape to get a more even temperature in their racks?
