It's a great video, though I'm stuck seeing my daytime temp at between 49 and 50c. Everything else seems great. How do I get that temp down, or is that simply what it will get up to if you let it? Cheers. Steve.

Just make sure the thermometer is set to OUT for your enclosure temperature and you're done

I'm not sure I understand but you will always get up to 1 or 2 of a degrees difference between thermometers and up to 5% difference between hygrometers

@@itsasnakeslife1775 Thank you for responding. I also have had many a snake, but am trying to incubate these eggs. Sorry to be so confusing. I was exhausted. I love the 3-dor red button hygrometer/thermometer. I will get more, no doubt. I was just and kinda still am, in a scary situation when I found out the incubator I got wasn't equipped with a built-in temp. gauge or humidity sensor. It was factory pre-set. It "says" what number you punch into it, and the defaults can be changed: But not without a proper working hygrometer/thermometer. I'm shooting for 37.3 or 5 in Celcius or 99.5 in Fahrenheit. Humidity: must be "around" 55%. So far, my meter with the 3 red dots finally reads consistently 37.6 C at 55-60% Humidity. I was just wondering why all the discrepancies with all the meters I bought and simultaneously hooked up to the machine. They all are off by 3 digits. The incubator had to be set to 101F to keep a hydrometer reading (3 red dots one) of 37C and 55% Humidity. I hope this makes sense because I hope I don't end up with dead or deformed chicks! This is really difficult, hence my mental exhaustion. Thank you for your input! I really appreciate it! Any ideas based on my clarification is also appreciated, and thank you!!!

They're all still going strong. Haven't even changed the batteries in any of them yet

Not sure exactly on length, but they're pretty long. I'd say at least 3ft

The bulb symbol will flash when the timer is running and powering something. In order to set the timer, you need to adjust TIMER 1 ON and TIMER 1 OFF. Also make sure that you set TIMER 2 ON and OFF to the same times (E.g Timer 2 on - 00:00 Timer 2 off - 00:00) to deactivate it.

I've found that over time they do start getting behind on time. But it takes a while to notice. Other than that minor issue I've had no problem with them.

I'm using soil these days but in this video I am using a mix of coco fibre and coco husk. You do have to spray quite a lot. Sometimes if it's really dry I will just pour some water in and mix it up. I use a deep heat projectors (lamps). I have wooden enclosures. If you're using a mesh lid then that could be part of your problem. You could try covering up half the lid

A heat lamp will dry it out. Try using heating pads instead.

I prefer not to use or to recommend heat mats for a number of reasons, unless it's being used for a youngster in an enclosure that's unable to accommodate a lamp. Mats will eventually dry out the substrate above them, they won't dry out the rest of the enclosure but that's simply because they don't heat the rest of the enclosure and a moist unheated enclosure is going to be cold

For more information on humidity I recommend my other video.... ua-cam.com/video/Kd9kl79224E/v-deo.html

It depends on your own personal conditions to be honest. Personally I don't stick to any particular schedule. I just wait until the enclosure drops down to about the minimum amount for that species and then bump it back up again. It means doing a lot more spraying at one time but I prefer to let them have drops and spikes in humidity. The only time I aim to keep it at a constant high is when they are in Shed.

All plants require different amounts of light. They may benefit from some UV (as will your gecko) but they can be over exposed to it and you would still need to provide a grow light. It doesn't have a night mode. Reptiles shouldn't be exposed to any kind of light at night to be honest. "Night lights" whether they are blue or red etc, are still emitting light that can be seen by the animal. Hope this helps.

The screen that stands on top of your vivarium has an internal thermometer (IN) that measures room temperature. The probe on the end of the wire used to measure your enclosures temperature is the OUT reading. Hope that makes more sense. It's confusing I know.

Thanks man! I have it for 2,5 monhts right now and it’s not working good anymore. The thermometer works great! But the hygrometer not, it says 24% humidty in my room. Do i need to calibrate it? Thanks.

You can always check the accuracy using the salt trick ua-cam.com/video/amSMJ2pUIdE/v-deo.html

😔 Maybe one day. I do believe they're are very similar products under different brand names.

Thanks 👍🏻
