Just to be sure are your temps spiking and swinging from too hot to too cold over a short period of time?
Or are you seeing high temps stable?

sounds like things are ok 78 cool is ok not ideal but not really too much of a problem. If you are finding the cool side temps low and the ambient air temp low addition of a flourscent light during the day may help if it is on the cover or inside it will give off heat during the day but not massive amounts just some. This can help raise the temps in a fairly natural way and allow for an over night drop especially if you can add some insulation (foam sheeting like blue or pink or even packing foam) to the sides or back.
