    Re: Heating issues in my rack

    No problem! Probe placement is always the most important part to setting up a thermostat. I'm curious as to where you ended up with your probe. I can't figure out how having the probe between the heat tape and tub wouldn't get up to 86 if the setup is capable of 117. Maybe I can learn something.

    I'm glad you got it working though and feel free to shoot me an email if you have any other questions.

Thanks again for your help there Dion, you have been a great help to me through this. Highly impressed!

    I had it on the third shelf up, more toward the back end of the tape. I moved it half way through the 2nd shelf and towards the middle of the tape and it is going much better now.
