Edit: and by small cooler I mean just big enough to close with the tobacco and stone in it.
I'm after the heat, not necessarily the sunlight. I could accomplish the same thing on top of the water heater, it would just take longer. I like the idea of the bag simply because the contents will be visible at all times. That way I can see the build up of moisture in the bag and take appropriate action quickly.
