Great news! So glad you’ll have your guy at home. Yes, the rhp goes on the roof/ceiling inside the enclosure. I have my probe on the back wall of the enclosure, directly under and behind the panel, about an inch and a half off the cage floor. The thermostat is set a bit lower than my actual hotspot, because the probe is not directly under the heat source. When dialing any of my panels in, I set my Accurite thermometer directly under the heat panel. The benefit to these thermometers is that they track a high/low temperature range in addition to the current temperature reading. Once my Accurite has the hot spot reading I want, I leave everything in place 24-48 hours (no snake) and then check the surface temps with my temp gun. If all is well, in goes the snake.

I ordered 3 panels on 11/15/18 and received them in early December, so I’d say 2-3 weeks turn around.
