Incandescent lights ... the old style type Xmas bulbs. Initially I thought a string of 25 would be needed but about 20 minutes later the temp inside the enclosure was 80f.
I backed off the bulbs until I could get enough lit that temps remained in the 42- 48 degree range. The final result was three ... yup 3 bulbs. Cheap you bet.

Cheers, Barrie.
