Right now, I have my thermostat set to 82 to achieve ambients of 75 - 79ish. Meaning, I wasn't sure if there was a minimum room temp needed to enable to the RHP to do it's job.
    What size RHP did you order? 40 watt, 65 watt, 80, 100 ect?
    I wouldn't order under a 60 watt unless you keep your home at 70 degrees 24/7 365.

    What Thermostat is 82? Your house or Enclosure?
