New question: Wink

The thermostats (habistat - dimming) only go up to about 32 degrees - not hot enough for basking spot. To get a higher temp, do you place the probe away from the spot bulb just enough so that the basking spot is the right temp (circa 130 degrees)?

Thanks!

I'd have to use a highere wattage, 130 is apparently the low end of the scale for ackie basking spots, 150-160 even! Shocked

I still kinda want a stat, would make my Mum a lot happier about fire risks!

I usually use stats to monitor the cool end , just play about with the basking stack or raise or lower the light until you get the temp you want
