Default Would increasing light wattage increase tank temp? How much?

I have a pair of 40watt shop lights(I think around 4ft long) on my rack system. Today the sky were a bit cloudy and the temp only got to 70*F... Would increasing it to maybe 60watts get the temp to 78-80? This is a breeder viv with Pumilios so they like the slightly warmer atmosphere. Was also thinking about doing this for my Vents. Comments, suggestions, please post.

Thanks,
William
