When I use to run halides I'd keep my temp up around 80-82 in the summer cause I couldn't get it cooler so made sense just keep it warm to avoid large swings. Come winter it could be kept around 78 so I'd adjust. Only reason was to save some power and keep the humidity down a little, not a huge difference really but that was my reasoning behind it and I figure that would be everyone else's as well. In the end it's not really about turning the temp down in the winter but rather turning it up in the summer. Now with LEDs I don't change temps because I can maintain 78 year round.
