I get it now, you want to know how much the heat in your room, not your cab, would rise....correct?

In a sealed environment your room and cab would eventually reach the same temp...one of those thermodynamic priciples....but rooms are far from perfectly sealed and the lights are cycling on and off so I can't predict the rise with any accuracy...but I never head of exhaust heat from a 250w cab ever causing a problem...the heat should disapate quickly if the cab is venting into a room bigger than a closet...is that what you are trying to find out?
