Should be fine for now. Make sure you watch the temps as it can climb rapidly with those kinds of bulbs. Also to help hold in heat and humidity you can cover 3/4 of your screen top with plastic wrap. Your light should be in the center of the lid and cover the on both sides of the lid on the cool and warm side with plastic wrap. It will hold heat and humidity better and you won't have to dial the lamp up so high. Make sure you don't put the plastic wrap under the lamp.
