I've decided to start upgrading my 6 year old Dandy Chill n Tap. The regulator went bad so while replacing that I decided to invest in the temperature controller.

Now my question.............
I installed the controller last night and set the on temperature to 37 and the off temp to 35. I have a glass filled with water. Using the submersible probe that should give me the liquid temperature.
I've also had a Radio Shack digital thermometer in there for years which typically showed an ambient temp of approx 40. This is where it gets interesting.

This morning the controller shows a liquid temperature of 37, and the portable thermometer shows an ambient temp of 48!!! I've located the glass on the floor of the kegerator right next to my 1/6 barrel of Sam Summer.

How can that be? I would have assumed the ambient temp would have been around 30-32.

Any insight would be appreciated.
