    84 cool side to high?

    So I'm getting my friends Ivory today and I've been testing the T10 with pro products 88w 24x12 panel with Herpstat 6 probe on hot side set to give me 90 and my cool side stays a consistent 84. Is 84 a tad to high for the cool side? My 2 other bps are at 90 hot and average 82 cool sometimes goes down to 81 but not often and they do really well in those conditions so I was hoping to mimic the same but unfortunately I can not. I'll have the reptile basics large hides today so it may be a degree cooler inside the cool hide but I'm not sure if it will. I know I'm probably just other thinking it....

    I believe above 75 and below 85 is ideal. I have my RHP set to 80, but with it being summer, im having a hell of a time keeping it below 84, but the snakes seem fine.

    I think you will be ok. I am on 100% ambient right now except for my incubator and those temps are pretty much my range throughout the day.

    With a 84 degree cool side I would simply not provide a hot spot

    The 84 cool is bc of the rhp so if I drop the rhp temp so there's no hot side then the cool side will drop below 84. My house stays average of 60 sometimes gets to 65 so the only way I could keep the whole cage at 84 would be to get a rhp that goes length of cage.
