Bio-active setup; heating question

[rothsauce]

I've read as much as I could on the subject, but was wondering if anyone uses something besides a lamp/bulb to provide heating on the warm side. Given the thickness of the soil I'd be interested if there are any alternatives.

I use a Zoo-med heat cable and the soil conducts the heat just fine.

Hm. Might be tempted to try a heat cable, want to convert all the current cages to this setup but am kinda bummed about ditching all the heat mats :/

Heat mats are fine. I have that too, I just prefer heat cable because it can be installed and removed.
