I ask, because unless its an absolute bargain, you may be better off with a conventional stand.

The idea was to provide a warmer and more humid environment for some of my Phals violacea and violacea hybrids, Brassia and Brassavola to get them started growing year-round rather than have them wait until summer to grow better. I use windowsills and lights in a sunroom and I also have a small tank for some miniature Angrecoids. Overall I have had good success with my setups.

You could be right. Maybe simply adding a seedling heat mat under one of my trays might provide the extra warmth needed to get those few orchids going.
