Carnivorous Plants

night time cooling

I recently purchased a large Nepenthes Rajah, with an 8 inch leaf span, but the night time temps in my terrarium aren't cool enough. I know N. Rajah will need a temp drop at night in the long run, so does anybody know a way to cool down a terrarium to about 50 degrees?

The peltier junction heat pumps should do the trick nicely, they are what coleman and most other mfgs are using in their 12vdc portable drink coolers/ food warmers
