UTH Temp discrepency survey

I'd like to know, for people who use UTH for their pythons, what the discrepancy in the temp readings of the probe are for inside the enclosure (i.e. "where the snake is") versus if you stick the probe on the outside of the enclosure between the uth and the enclosure itself.

For example.... my inside reading is 95.3, but if I put the probe between the uth and the tank itself, it shoots up to a shocking 115.6. That just doesnt feel right to me. That little bitty bit of tupperware cant displace that much heat can it?

If you have never measured the discrepancy in your own setup, go do it and tell me what you get!!! pretty please! Gurus- am I trippin or am I temping my inside wrong. Python will move that damn probe sensor around sometimes.... so it doesnt stay firmly stuck down to the bottom, but more like sits on top of it (just like the snake would)

He is still being a brat and refusing to eat, too. But now im paranoid my temps are off, and am re-checking everything.

Thanks-

Artemis
