I'm still convinced that the major danger is rapid changes of
temperature, rather than the actual temperature itself. I would think
that using a heat pack could make the problem worse! I think a better
solution would be to insulate the case better. If you're just looking
for an easy, quick solution, try wrapping the case in a blanket!
