There are some times when intervening is best, this seems like one of those times. Worst case you get bit and the snake doesn't eat...
do you even know the temperatures inside the cage?
UTH's must be regulated by a thermostat, without one they can and will get hot enough to kill your snake. they can reach 130+ degrees in a matter of hours.
Please read these 2 threads, it sounds like you have been given some bad information and it would be best to clear things up.
