doing this to keep up the ambient heat. Are they controlled by a thermostat? I think 2 heat sources are the same side, or in such a small enclosure is going a bit overboard. I would stick with one source

just get 1 radiant heat panel , many are side mountable if needed. they work so much better than anything else i have used.

Build an insulated enclosure, save energy and keep a rock steady temp that does not fluctuate with the room temps.
