The new heatpad I was waiting on for my Woma's tank arrived this arvo, I set it, used a probe on the glass to see the temp, adjusted it a heap of times and now have it down to it's lowest.

Got it down to 35.6 degrees, the measuring thing is out by 2 degrees, so was actually about 33 degrees, I'm going to check on it later on tonight make sure it's keeping the right temp still and use a normal thermometer for that just to be sure.

I doubt I'll get it down to 32 except through the night in winter as the tank is normally 30? degrees through the day anyway except up near the top where she lays on hot days.

The new heatpad is a 28 x 42 cm 20 watt adjustable temp one, this frees up the 5 watt one that was long overdue for a upsize for the smooth knob-tailed gecko's tank.
 
Might I suggest you invest in an IR temp gun?
