Taszia how are you? hope life is treating you well. I have similar issue in unheated conservatory. I use a 160w and think of a cone shape for coverage, so I then use a 40w basking a little way along and then if very bad cold snap I will use a moonlight 40w which just take the chill off - this is in a moveable clamp so very often will leave on day and night as temp remains static around 22 degrees but can make warmer lower down.
I am not a great fan of heat mats at all - torts thermoregulate so ambient temp is far better CB
