I would be trying to string together some cfl's or something 5-7 day's using 1000w with no ventilation its going to get hot quick depending on the size of your room. If you have no other choice use the back of your hand and raise it a little until you can keep your hand in one spot comfortably. Maybe someone that has had to do something like this before will help you out better.I hope it all works out for you.
