I've searched for this, and haven't found it directly addressed, but .... getting a temperature of 80-85 on the warm side and 72-78 on the cool side is fine for me on top of the substrate, but ... when I directly measure the temperature of the ceramic tile that is over my newly installed heat tape, I'm measuring temps in the 90's (maybe as high as 97). I've measured directly in my little guys hides (3 seperate sections of one big hide), and the temps are okay (82-ish).
What's an acceptable temperature of the tile itself (or for those of us with glass, too)? Note that I'm using an inch or so of substrate.
