I just moved him from a 40 breeder into a 75, and the 40w is the only size that will fit inside the plastic tank rims. It actually does a great job keeping him warm in an aquarium with a pegboard top, would be much more efficient in your setup. The 80w size works very well in my 4x2x2 plywood enclosures, maintains the ambient temp very nicely in those.
I'll definitely consider a RHP in the future

So I just pointed the IR temp device directly at the CHE and discovered that its at about 144 degrees Fahrenheit. It's crazy to me that the probe isnt getting to at least 92 degrees being that its like 6" away from the CHE
