Re: Setup Question
Hey Missi~ your set-up looks awesome!!
Yves~ If you live close to the west coast you can get a helix in about 2 days ordering from the Helix web site. If you live close to the east coast you can get one in about 2 days ordering from Reptile Basics. If you go with the Helix you can order from their web site (spyder robotics) and get it in about 3 days. Don't know about ranco.....

Re: Setup Question
I totally forgot I had a thermostat 
It's a Zoo Med Remote Sensor Thermostat. I know it's not the best but at least I have something for now. I don't know how I forgot I bought one last month, I must be getting old.

Use the probe temp as a reference to double check the thermostat is working.
I put both the Zoo Med and my digital themostst under the substrate on the glass where the heating pad is and I waited until it got to 96F then turned down the dial on the zoo med slowly till it shut off.
Is 96F a ok shut off temp for the UTH?
I'll keep an eye on the temp a while in any case.
Nice setup Missi!

96 is a bit hot for the pythons- 92-94 is good!!
