Don't sweat it. That temp at the damper is gonna be several degrees higher than grate temp anyway.
These other guys are right too. Butts are forgiving. Just keep an eye on them and you'll be fine. I have 2 on right now and the temp is grate temp is swinging between 235-250 but my lid temp is showing a steady 295.
The Maverick ET-73 is a great thermometer.
