I think that's exactly the case. Mine is fired with an oil 
filled radiator, which has a considerably higher BTU output 
than a couple of Dampp-Chaser heater rods. In your case, 
insulation kept the little available heat in the box. It also 
has a hard time generating the temperature differential 
necessary to take the MC down to 6% when the summer RH% is 
over 70. It takes 110°F for 24 over hours to get there.
