I use a 40 watt CHE Nano. It's fine. He has laid on it before and it still only tops out at 85F. It's more the ambient in the cage. Plus, like i said, i only use a 40 watt nano CHE which are the tiny ones about 2 inches in diameter if that, so he has plenty of space to get away from the heat if he wants. He actually spends most of his time sleeping on a perch behind his plant on the other side or actually on top of the plant itself. He only comes over to the warm side after he eats.
That's good.
If you have the wire style fixture for it you can also mount it directly to the wire on the last outer ring pointing inward. That's how I set up my ETB temporally while waiting on that cage. Worked well but I was using a full size che.
