    temperature fluctuation/what kind of thermostat?

    i bought it from an automatic shop. they say it's used for food warmers, incubators and water heaters. just a cheap one. the temp range now fluctuates from 95.5 to 98.5 after i adjusted it a bit. it's getting close. but if it will just stay there. i'll buy a better one. :) thanks. :)
