    hot spot

    i dont have a temp gun yet but i have my uth pad on a hydrofarm thermostat, and i was wondering if you guys can feel any heat comming from your hot spot when you put your fingers on it or are humans not supposed to be able to feel the heat i have it set at 95 degrees

    Mine is set at 92 degrees.

    If my hands are really cold, I feel the heat. If my hands are normal temperature I don't. It all depends on the temperature of my body at that point in time.

    Reach for the stars, and if you don't grab them at least you'll fall on top of the world.

    can you feel the heat through the plastic/glass not when you touch the heating device itself if that is what you are talking about?

    Your body temp norm is 97.6 your hands can hit over 100ºF anything less is barely warm or almost cool you need a thermometer to check anything at this point IR are fine but even a cheap one is better than nothing.
