I have a Florescent light fixture in my cage (2ft long) with 2 - 10.0 uvb florescent bulbs in there. with that being said my hot side stays around high 90's and cool side mid 80's humidity strong on the cool side at 80% never less than that and hot side humidity is at 65 ish % down in my borrows its almost 100% humidity and the temps are mid 70's... i also have 2 feet of sand/soil mix in my cage as well.
