When using a PVC cage with a RHP, most people that I know who have this type of set-up, run the thermostat probe in through one of the vents and use either small wire clamps and self-tapping screws or hot glue to to secure the wire to the cage so that the probe is approximately 1/4 to 1/3 of the cage height from the floor. An easier way to remember it is to just mount it 3-4 inches from the floor of the cage for cages that are between 12-18 inches tall.
Hope this helps...
YES!!! I can re-use it now!! Thanks a lot for that tip, really helped me out. Im broke and trying to start breeding so I need every dollar that I can save! Also, thanks for your tub-setup tutorial, it was realy informative. Alls I gotta do is get me some snakes now.

For the Thermostat probe, am I just putting it 3-4 inches from the floor & hot glue it to the side of the wall closest to the RHP? Or am I actually hot gluing some of it to the roof and letting it hang so its 3-5 inches from the floor. I think for the RHP, once I set it up, let it warm up and put in my thermometers, there shouldnt be too hard of a problem in order to get the right temps.

Another thing I wanted to know is, can I use the herpstat to monitor both my RHP for the PVC enclosure, AND for a UTH on a seperate hatchling tub? I'd imagine I have to fiddle around with the settings to get the temps right on both, but I think its do-able.
