Default Trans Temps From Those Using A DashHawk?

Just curious to see what others are getting for transmission fluid temps for those who are using a DashHawk for monitoring? Please post what temps you are seeing during city & highway driving and also if you have a non-factory converter and/or trans cooler added. Looking for Dashhawk temps so that I know it's an apples to apples comparison and it is pulling the temp values from the same location.

I have a 3600 Yank converter and a B&M 70264 cooler added. I am getting trans temps of around 200-205 on highway and 210-215 during city driving during an 80* day. I think this is too high and I beleive it is a result of my ECT's being too high and the factory cooler warming the fluid too much. My ECT's are around 200* on highway and 215-225 during city driving.

Going to have my tuner lower the e-fan on temp settings to try and bring these down a bit.

If I get right on the highway mine will hover at about 150. In town with heavy traffic it will get to about 180.
