My guess would be the hot side is too hot and whatever you are using to measure temps may not be as accurate as you think. I keep my hot side between 88-92, 94 is a little too hot to keep consistently. Do you use a thermostat for the UTH?
It's on a lamp dimmer, but its monitored with a probe and stays consistent... I've had it as low as 85-90 for a while and he has still never spent any time curled up over there..?
