75 degrees = 68 degrees. No wonder I couldn't get things to adhere well sometimes.

As a side note, the temp varies wildly along the plate base. An enclosure would definitely help here.

Has anyone else tested the actual temps versus the set/displayed temps and noticed a difference?

If you want to test more accurately, put some matte tape on the bed and then measure the temperature then.

hehe. I use dots left over from my first-layer test prints. or other 1-2 layer height plastics. it can be anything that's thin, and not shiny.
