Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Does this thermometer need batteries?

Ans: No. The Dual Analog Thermometer & Humidity Gauge requires no batteries, outlets, or connections, so that you can use it straight out of the package. Simply attach it inside your terrarium with the hook-and-loop backing and read the analog dials.

Q2: Where in my leopard gecko's tank should the gauge go?

Ans: Place it inside the tank, since the gauge must be in the enclosure to measure accurately. Leopard geckos thermoregulate by moving between warmer and cooler areas, so the terrarium should have several temperature gradients with at least one hide in each.

Q3: Is the gauge waterproof?

Ans: No. The analog dual thermometer and humidity gauge is not waterproof. It should not be used in aquatic environments, and if you set it up in a terrarium, avoid misting it directly with water when you mist the enclosure for humidity.

Q4: Can I use this gauge in a tropical terrarium?

Ans: Yes. Product details describe the gauge as perfect for both arid and tropical environments, as well as for reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. In humid tropical setups avoid misting the gauge directly, since it is not waterproof. Mount it inside the enclosure for accurate readings.

Q5: How does the gauge attach to the terrarium?

Ans: The gauge has a hook-and-loop (fuzzy fastener) backing that you can stick anywhere in the terrarium. The backing enables easy removal for cleaning or relocation so you can move the gauge when you rearrange the habitat or monitor a different area.

Q6: Why should I monitor temperature and humidity?

Ans: Temperature and humidity levels are extremely important to the long-term health of your animals. This gauge lets you track both from a single unit with color-coded analog dials, so you can check conditions at a glance and adjust your setup as needed.
