I am also a night person as i suffer from insomnia due to bad arthritus and refuse to take pain meds, besides my husband is a loud snorer and who can sleep through an earthquake. So my BP is my nighttime buddy.

    I feel for you blue roses. I have RA and Lupus. My snakes keep those long painful nights more fun!

    Never used a ceramic CHE, I'm assuming that you need the basket type fixtures correct? and something to hang them on as they can't sit on the screen top.

    Well I believe that is what has made mine last as long as it has. However the box of the che say the fixture should have the holes at the base of the fixture dome to release the heat and keep it from building up and frying the che with its own heat. Being the wire fixture is so cheap I would use it so you get the best results from the che and it last a long time for you.
