When she kicks the probe out of the hut I know because the temp drops to 83-85. If I were to turn the light off, the glass would stay 92, but the surface would drop.

    She never goes on the hot side. She cruises and then goes back to the cool side.
    Are you using the thermostat reading to determine ambient temps? Because if the probe is pushed out of place the temp shouldn't be dropping but rising because the thermostat will run the light more. (The thermostat will read lower temps however because the probe is no longer in the target area.)

    If you're not using an independent thermometer to measure air temps (temp guns don't measure air temps only surface temps), then you should get one.
