Heating

Honestly, use it to sort your temps out, but order the one from amazon and bring that one from home depot back. Save yourself some money.

Make sure you know the temps at the base under the substrate, but shooting glass with a IRI temp gun won't be accurate because you're not supposed to shoot reflective surfaces.

I'm fine with the temp gun I bought, but If I ever need another I will buy on Amazon. I changed my hot spot to paper towels, and then the cool side is with a thin layer of eco earth. I raised the thermostat and have the temp now at 85 and am checking it with the temp gun.

I visited the rescue today and I'm bringing home a baby ball python tomorrow, SO GLAD this is all figured out before hand.

Thank you, everyone, for helping out with all this! The temp gun is soooo helpful and I'm glad I have one now.

Will show pics of her later when she's all settled in.

Sounds like you're in good shape!!! Be sure to start a thread for your new guy/girl once you've got her home. Then let him/her settle in for a bit.

Great job getting your setup ready ahead of time!!

Good luck!!! Feel free to ask any more questions you may have.
