Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Everything Mr. Moore said is true about the thermostat setup. With the probe in the slot the temp will have to be raised a few degrees higher to match what the enclosure actually gets. The AP cages are great cages and we have a lot of customers that use them. :^)
If its a large enclosure you could also add a divider to the cage and keep the animal on the warmer side. Just something simple and temporary made out of cardboard or a plastic rubbermaid lid, ect. Split the cage 20/80 or so.
Additionally: I find that the infrared temp guns work pretty well as long as you take their reading with a grain of salt. Unless you spent hundreds on one the temps can be off by a few degrees.

Actually, the same can be said for indoor/outdoor thermometers....and Tstats, for that matter (since they measure one specific spot in one cage). One cannot leave judgement out of the mix, or "set it, and forget it". People sometimes get so hung up on numbers they fail to see what is actually going on.
