Calibrated it twice using two other digital thermometers. You can see the calibrations in the sharp drops, but the probe just keeps creeping up.

This is exactly why you run a redundant temp controller on your heaters, had this been the opposite and happened to someone else that was relying solely on their controller they could have cooked thier tank. So remember have a 2nd/redundant controller set just inside/outside your desired range to catch this.
