Depending on ambient temps in the room, you may not need a light, except for cleaning/handling.
How are you heating the enclosure?
I plan to use a uth, and I was possibly considering using a night time bulb as well to add a little more heat when it is really cold. I live in New Jersey in an old home, so it can be a bit drafty in the winter and I want a back up just in case I cannot get the temperature right with the UTH.
However i read that lights have a tendency to dry out the air and mess with the humidity.
What should I do here?
