You changed the coolant, thermostat, a fan controller and added water wetter.
How many is a bunch. Thermostat, fan controller, water wetter can all be considered add ons. So, regardless of any personal attack trying wrongly to defend yourself and which will be shortly deleted, you have no idea what the water wetter did and have proved you have no clue how to actually test a product for functionality. "I put in a lower temp thermostat and changed the coolant and turn my fans on manually all the time but that water wetter was the stuff responsible for my lower coolant temps."

I came across this and I will adjust my nice IR gun and see how it changes the readout temp.
