Does a ceramic heat emitter work well with the Sterilite bin cage setup? I don't want my hedgie to overheat when she comes home.

Yup, it can work just fine! Just make sure you have holes in the sides of the bin (which is for the best anyway, for ventilation), and you'll probably only need a small CHE set up - probably an 8-inch lamp would work fine for a bin set up, and only a 60 or 100 watt bulb. And of course, still a thermostat to control the bulb.
