Generally I'd go with the temp on the thermometer, especially of your using a stat with one of those stupid dials! Digital readouts ftw

Definatley go off the thermometer then, I used a pulse stat with one of those little screwdriver adjustment deals and it took me an age to dial the temps in. Wretched little things

After that I swapped all my stats out for the lucky reptile digital stats. Takes 2mims to setup and I managed not to rip out what's left of my hair. Win/win
