    Re: Defective flexwatt?

    I have a similar problem with my temps as well. I also use the VE 200.

    My top shelf temp reading is 86-87 degrees, middle shelf is 88-89, bottom shelf is 90-91.

    Probe is on the middle shelf and is taped directly to the 4" flexwatt.

    VE 200 is set to 93 degrees.

    I'm not sure what the problem is either.

    Re: Defective flexwatt?

    Thanks for the reply, at least I am not alone.

    Only thing I didn't try was to wire each shelf with it's own plug, so I went and got several extension cords & wired each. I plugged a power strip into the VE-200 & plugged in each extension cord. As of now I am within about 3-4 degrees. The lower shelf is finally heating up it's reading 90 inside & the top is 93 with the VE-200 set to 93. Going to lower it to 92 and hopefully everything will be perfect.

    Hey sorry I really haven't been on here much in the last few days. It is working perfectly now that I just have each wired with it's own plug. Temps are pretty close as well top is 91, middle is 90.5, bottom is 89.
