Buying my Dumerils today!!
The other day i found a sweet deal. Pvc tank, 24x24x36, herpstat with probe, RBI 80wattt heat panel and a stand, all for $200. So the wife and i decided to buy a Dumerils, hopefully pick it up today. Thing is, i cant really get gradient temp with the panel. Under it i can get it to go to86, but the other side only goes 1 degree cooler. So what im tryin as we speak is, i put a heat mat under the tank, under the panel to see if i can get a hot spot of 88-89, and see if the other side stays alittle cooler. Anyone have any feedback??

Re: Buying my Dumerils today!!
So i experimented and with the panel and UTH, the hotspot gets to 89, and the cool side gets to 82. How is that for Dumerils? Humidity is about 70.

Re: Buying my Dumerils today!!
Sounds good to me. At night i turn the panel down about three to four degrees. Can't wait to see pics of your Dumeril when you get it.

Re: Buying my Dumerils today!!
Just picked him up and just letting him settle in. Do i need to let the temp drop or no? I know with my ball python they dont need a night time temp drop.

Re: Buying my Dumerils today!!
Look forward to seeing pics as well. We just got 2 Dum boys this year. Your temps sound alright, but the humidity seems high. Granted I'm a newb when it comes to Dums, but from my research it seems that a humidity of 45-55% is average.
