Question about probe placement of Herpstat 4

[KMG]

What I'm worried about is people telling others that it's dangerous to tape the probe tip directly to the heating element, which it is not.

When I have suggested mounting a probe I also suggest aluminum tape so I believe it should be added to not tape the tip since SR makes it a point to say it.

With other tapes if there is no issue with taping the probe tip that's fine and of course the caution of taping the tip is unwarranted and therefor un-needed.
