I INSTALLED 6 SUPEERSTATS IN 3 jEEPS AND NEVER GOT ONE THAT WOULD COME UP TO TEMP.

Switched to Mopar and all is fine in winter and summer.

I shall take that as a stinging rebuke, repent, and mend my Stant ways!

absolutely, from what I can gauge at least. At operating temp, needle's right edge will be touching left edge of 210 mark. So just a hair below 210. Varies a small bit from there.
