100K Thermistors Reading 113.6

Huh?

Does it matter since everything is done with PID?

Anyway, I thought I would ask.

You need to use more units.... 113.6 what? Chicken nuggets? Ohm? Degrees C? etc....

It's only supposed to be 100K at a specific calibration temperature, usually 25C. 113K would simply mean your ambient was a few degrees cooler than that.

113K Ω of course.

Makes sense. It was about 68 degrees.
