Veiled Chameleon Coolest Temperature?

Okay, this is the last question for a while(I swear). :rolleyes:

I've read some (seemingly) contradictory information in regards to Veiled Chameleons. Some say that you can take them down to 40f at night while others say *anything* lower than 65f is terrible for them. I guess the question is somewhat self-explanatory: what kind of temp is closer to the truth? I'm not worried about being unable to have ~65f at night, even in the winter, but leeway is always nice to have. Thanks again!

(as it gets closer to me making my purchase, I'll update here on the forums as applicable)!
 
I personally wouldn't worry at all about temperatures in the 50s, and I would be okay with high 40s as well. If it's consistently that low though, of course you would have a problem over time, but a few cold winter nights getting that low is fine, just make sure they have somewhere to warm up in the morning aka a basking light.
