Here is a link to a post i did many moons ago on temps of diiferent fittings that i have used in the past.
You will find that why they say not to use a heat emmitter with an overhead dome is the temperature on the heat emmitter gets so intense it will melt or cook something. With saying that a heat emmitter inside an enclosure with mesh surround is ok as the heat dissapates in the air very quickly.
I would not use any high temp heat source without a thermostat.
Check out my temp findings. It blew my mind & has been very usefull info.
Cheers
Ian
