Reading through a lot of the threads here on rack setups and alternatives, would it be just as effective as a traditional rack system to just buy sterilite tubs in the appropriate sizing, melt holes in the top for air circulation, put uths on the bottoms, and then snap the lids on and just put them on shelves? That's obviously a quick and simple way of saying it, but I'm genuinely curious about this. As long as the uths are run through to a thermostat and the overall wattage doesn't exceed its capacity, it seems like in theory this would work -- and be considerably easier to set up. Am I missing something?
I'm guessing that ambient temps would still need some tweaking as my house is usually pretty cold in the winter, but this can also be an issue with traditional rack systems from my understanding.
