the mat wont really feel warm to you as your body temp is higher than the mat,take no notice of the numbers on the stat you need to get a digi thermometer if you dont have one already as the dial ones are hopless.The mat will stay off for a bit then kick back in when the temp drops.You could try thinning the substrate out a bit over the mat.
