I dont know about all your size requirements all i know is i am having a tough time regulating the heat in my cage and its 24 in high. I wouldnt recommend going any higher than that.

a friend of mine built a 3 foot tall cage for a couple chameleons... he had the problem getting the heat up and regulated... I added two heat pads under a shelf near the bottom. drilled and installed 2 computer fans one low one high and added a ceramic heat bulb.... threw a thermostat on there and he was set... he had to remove one of the animals because they wouldn’t stop laying eggs.. guess they were happy
