Here we go again.. temperature question.

Google did it. I ordered a 80 Watts one from reptile basics. The size is perfect for my cage and the wattage is similar to what I had with the bulbs (75W) so should be enough.

I have been reading some older posts and the general consensus is to put the probe low, close to the substrate. Any problem with that?

That is a common method. Mine is not. It can be seen in post #2 here. https://ball-pythons.net/forums/show...ht=probe+mount

I'd post a new pic but every time I go to Photobucket my tablet tries to tell me it gave me a virus and the end of the world is coming.
