Hey Joe, mine is in the basement as well and has all the advantages mentioned above. I built the room when I finished off my basement. It was originally meant to be a hunting/fishing room but the snakes took over! I installed a lot of outlets and have two overhead lights as well as a large sliding window. (room is almost all underground though) I blocked off the window with foil insulation on the outside to stop the window from sweating and so I could use the amount of light I want during winter. The snakes that I brumate are also kept in the basement and I have the choice of the storage room which stays around 57-60, or in the well pump room which goes all the way down to 48-50. Pretty nice to have the choices I must say. I am prob. going to keep all my pyros and zonata in the storage room with UTH so they have a larger gradient.
