Alrighty guys, I'm in a pickle with what I wanna do. I want to build a rack and have it in my room. Problem is I can't use anymore heat tape because If I do, my power bill will go through the roof. I have 2' of 11" flexwatt.
So, should I build a closed air rack, and use the tape as back heat? This would keep the ambient temp in the front of the rack around 82, and the rear around 89.
Or, open air rack and use a space heater to keep the ambient at a constant 83-84? I don't want to use the space heater AND heat tape, especially since its starting to warm up now outside.
