Another question from me! I tried to purchase the 2 probe Acurite thermometer from Walmart, but they had none in stock. After trips to several stores, I bought a different one by acurite that measures temp and humidity and placed it directly under my basking spot which is a 100W halogen flood light. Do you guys think that it is accurate? It looks like the sensor is on the top of the thermometer, that's where all the holes are.
I left it there for about 2 hours, checking it frequently. In the last hour it was mainly staying at 106F and would dip periodically to 104F, but not for long. The humidity was 25. The cool side was at 75F, is that too cold? Here is a pic of the thermometer inside the enclosure.
