i have to agree with the haters ive scrolled and seen this post and i shake my head each time. much easier to heat your home then cool it. get insulation around your grow if your having so much trouble. a portable heater is maybe 5-10 bucks if you go to goodwill or something.

dont make it harder than it has to be.

Yeah man I would say just get an electric heater with a thermostat. After you get your space setup, turn everything off, and let a thermometer sit over night. Then you can see what your humidity/Temps will be in High v.s Low. Humidity will rise during flowering, and if your running sealed you probably will want to let the lights run for 12/12 or 18/6. This will most likely give you the most accurate measurements as excess heat may sit around. Good luck bro keep it simple, perhaps research Scrog, do 8 1k's, each over a 4x4 screen. One plant per screen run in some Super Soil, and guaranteed your 48 hour intermissions will be possible.

-Good luck from So Cal! I wish you the best.

I don't know why; but this thread is renting space in my head.

If you are going to be in an industrial type building they often have natural gas powered heaters that hang from rafters in the warehouse type structures.
They are very efficient and with some judicious airflow can be directed to move large amounts of heated air for relatively cheap operating cost.

Or like the others mentioned: a flip-flop type setup with two rooms, ballasts, etc. could be engineered to do most, if not all, heating needs for sleeping plants.

Good luck man. I have constant pain from DRA.
People who don't live with Constant Pain have no idea what it's like to have to choose between opiates or weed.
I never understood it until it was my turn; so just let it roll off and do what you need to do man.
