yeah I agree, add side lighting to the box. what are the room temperatures, notice that you have a fan blowing air into the room, something to be aware of is that you don't want the exhausted heat to stay inside the room the box is in.

Heat does not seem to be a problem as of yet...
Even on the hottest days the cabs never get over 88 deg...

The tweaking never ends!!!
