    For the cool side/ambient temperatures: radiant heat panel, oil filled radiator, another UTH, etc... There are a few options out there.

    This is similar to the setup I have going on:
    1) Thermostat: http://www.reptilebasics.com/thermos...stat-prewired/
    2) Oil Filled Radiator: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000TGDGLU/...6V4L8DGF&psc=1
    Hmm, ok. Is there any temporary solution I could think about before I could do that? I'm thinking a radiant heat panel might be a good idea, but there's no way I can get one by this weekend. Could I maybe just raise the room temperature for now?

    (If you're wondering why this weekend, it's because there's a reptile expo then and we only have one or two a year in this state. If there's no temporary solution, I'll wait.)
