A radiant barrier wouldn't increase thermal mass. I am using a converted wine fridge at the moment and see no use for additional insulation. As has been mentioned, use water bottles to increase thermal mass. Fill as much empty space as you can with them. My temps fluctuate, at most, about .2 degrees because I have a hard time keeping a stable temp in the room it is located in.
