the temps vary roughly about 8 degrees, sometimes it holds for a couple of days then is either to high or to low. im using a 13 watt heat mat and the probe is positioned about 30mm above the heat mat thru the click clack

Try the probe directly on the click clack floor, and try to eliminate any draughts.
