Are you measuring air temp, ground temp or both? How are you measuring the temps? Temp gun? Digital gauge? Analog gauge?
I'm using a temp gun from pro exotics to measure ground temp, and I have a Zilla thermometer/hygrometer combo about 2/3 of the way down the center of the tank. There's about 1/4 - 1/2 inch of bedding over the hot side, and I've pressed my hand onto it and it's just warm. I don't think the temp gun is wrong.
