So heres my cheap mylar box set up. I went to Wal mart got some "Emergency Blanckets" in the camping department, thats mylar. Each was 3 bucks, or the finger discount...it is fucking walmart. I wraped the whole box in mylar. I got 2 300 wat cfl's 15 bucks each at home depot...I topped the box with the mylar so all reflection is just mylar. Mylar holds in all heat so in the back of the top mylar i cut a whole for heat to escape, but barely any light. A fan will work even better, i just dont have one
