Gunna go grab a bulb thermometer and see how that works.

Alright guys so this things vintage, but it still works, I got it from my in-laws, he said I could have it if I got it working, cleaned it up, plugged her in and the heat went up to about 114 and then shut off... then dropped a tad and went back up again. So everything works, right? BUT...

Heard them louder then ever tonight. We were on vaca for about 4 days, so I think the coyotes set up camp while we were gone. Thats going to change ;)
