    If you go with a lamp dimmer make sure its one with a dial or a slide. some dimmers only have a few settings kind of like those touch lamps. It will tank a little while to get your temps where you want them but when you do take a marker and mark where you have the dimmer set. You will also need to keep an eye on the temps. They will fluctuate with the ambient temperature of the room your enclosure is in.
