For a closet IR heat lamp or space heater. The IR heat or ceramic heater will be safer. But I would use a controller.

Something like these.

If not a small baseboard, those ceramic reptile bulbs are great for small spaces. Ive used them before for small setups. Just make sure you secure the lamps if you go that route.

Hi, I feel like if you need to add a heater, you should probably get a new light

I gotta ask. I'm having a cold snap through flowering stage and don't want to run a small heater in my 3x3x6. Safety issues. Anything else I can use?

The air in the room is gonna be the best to adjust. This is because you exhaust fan is likely changing the air many times a minute. So I would use a heater in the room that the tent sits in

I am terrified of those. Suggestions? What would you use for such a small space? Feel like they would burn the plant

Something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Programmable...ds=350w+ceramic+heater&qid=1611712931&sr=8-10

put black tape over any LEDs that a heater might have on it.

I don't know about this one. I will look into it. Mine, similar in size has warnings on it NOT to put it too close to anything within 3 feet. :(
