Just bought a digital thermometer/hygrometer for all my vivs and not sure on the best way to fix them up out the way of the reps, they have a 1m long cable on them so no worries about that.

Was thinking of using a hot glue gun but wasn't sure if it would be toxic to them or not?

Any ideas?

Can you leave it over night? always better to give it time than rush things mate.

Will do, went to stick the batteries in before gluing them in last night and I got AA instead of AAA, will bang them into tubs and set the mats/stats up for the night, thanks for the advice mate Smile
