TStat probe placement

[chakup]

Maybe im not reading it right. But if you have it like this...

Top shelf/lid
Tub
Heat tape
Probe
Bottom shelf

If scooting a tub over the bludge i would think itd wear the tape down or crease it. cause itd be tighter in that one spot...


Just a thought

So I'll follow the above and have a gap just enough. Even though it's reading will be "off"- the thermometer probe won't be inside and should work out. Gonna give it a shot.
