Do note that if you place it between the CHE and the mesh that it would get insanely hot, maybe even too hot for the probe to handle. I think my Herpstat probe can go up to 150 degrees, and the temps at that distance are WAY hotter than 150 degrees.
    Fair enough. I think I'm getting too hung up about having the probe right under the lamp (which I can't do if it's secured to the wall) but really as long as x temp on the probe gets 90 in the hotspot, it really doesn't matter if it's exactly under the lamp or not.

    Thanks Starscream. Having someone to bounce ideas off of helps me get out of my own head. Pretty sure I overthink everything lol.
