It matters not anyway - I have just made a load of cover from a spare fake plant I had. I am using a 2.0 light now - with all the cover it really is perfect I think - just enough light escape the cover to provide a day time feel. At night that light will go off and I will use a 25 Watt night heat lamp which so far is keeping the temp at a healthy 80F (this will drop - I have set alarm for 0330 to check it, it is now 0050).....I think I may have nailed it!
I will keep you all posted and let you know how things went in the morning!
