Newbie here, struggling with low temps in my basement. Yes, I may get a space heater. But I am trying to make use of a heat cable I already had on hand due to an unrelated project last year. It is a 27 foot, 80 watt flexible heat rope :

I just can't get the temps to budge much. This cable got exposed to weather last year and, as a newbie, I cant tell if it is still functioning properly. What is the best way to test of it is functioning like normal? If I touch a thermometer to the cable, what temp should it read?
Thanks
