Hi the meter was I think 26C? that's near the middle but slightly closer to the cool side so the coolest end will be cooler but maybe 1-2 degrees i'm not sure. But he actually rarely goes to the cool side except to take a crap. He craps in the same cold side everytime.
Also before the MVB, I was using this same 3 bulbs. So essentially I've just reverted back to 3 days ago and now i'm back to square one.
P.S. he' went in the burrow again just now...
EDIT, there's a slight difference to before the MVB and now. Before the MVB with the 3 halogens only I had surface temp of 140F, however today after the MVB is REMOVED the basking temp is 160F, due to some recommendations of people here. So everything is the same as a few days ago now, except I moved the bulbs to a distance to produce 160F.

In the video the hygrometer was reading (I think?) around 85f, is that the coolest ambient in the enclosure above/on the surface?
If he wasn`t active before you put the 160w bulb in, which bulbs were in place, and where is the humidity at 95%?
