    Quote: Great idea! I will make sure to pick up a 40 watt bulb. I plan to run it a couple of days to get the "kinks out" when I finish assembling. But, I would rather have it on hand to mess with it then to run to a store that isn't anywhere close by. Thanks again!

    Quote: I will certainly test is out for a few days to see how it is holding the temperature. I am wondering if the tupperware is not a good conductor of heat and that is why a higher bulb wattage is needed? hmmmm.
