However tho my zilla analog therm/hyrgo read about 80 and 50ish hum. My temp gun roughly is about the same for the sub. Just over 80ish on the warm side. I do have a pad hooked up to a thermostat and that reads between 85 and 90.

My question
My light is a mini halogen by zilla with a 25 watt day (day) and a 25 watt red (night) with the way that Temps seem to b in the high 70 to low 80 if barely even over 80 I never have seen it hit 85 (zilla analog gauge the digitals are garbage I think. Should I upgrade my main day bulb to a 50 watt halogen so I can have higher ambient air temp. Or should I just leave it the way it is since my BP is acting normal?

Thanks guys[/QUOTE]

Sounds like your temp gun and your Zilla are on the same page.
If you have UTH mat that is runing then your BP has his Hot Spot... As far as ambiant temps if you want to bring that up id think either a higher watt like you said or seal off air loss...what is the enclosure? Is it a screened lid Glass Aquarium? If so they loose a lot of heat. I have several and ive had to DR them up using Plexiglass over the top screen and Large Beach towels drapped over at night when my room temps go down to 65. If you do these things really monitor it though, covering things up could suddenly have him to hot.
Find a Acurite Probe Thermometer, amazon.com, i still see some online but they pulled them off the shelf in my area. Also save for a expensive proportional Tstat like Herpstat 2. Your Tstats are turning on and off and it makes a drastic fluctuation in temps.... Proportional Tstats make your Heat mat/ Lamp/RHP run at lower or higher watts without completely shutting off... Smooth transitions. The Herpstat 2 has 2 controls verses the Herpstat 1 so you can control your Mat temp and another heat sorce. Its costs $195 but its worth it if this is your new Hobby. The Herpstat 1 is 1/2 as much as the Herp2 but you can only control 1 heat source.
I used Hot Rocks in the 80's & Heat Mats alone for probably 15 years, after that started using lights with the mats and never had a problem in 30 years. Simple if done properly can work just fine.
