I do heat the chamber with a light bulb and Rancho temperature controller (about $40 on Ebay I think).  I used a red heat bulb just because I have one.  The internal air and heat from the bulbs are circulated with PC fans that are being run at about half voltage to slow them way down.  I am careful to never blow air directly on any of the trays.  And I pay close attention to where the bulb is shinning.  You don't want a hot spot on the casing from the light shinning on it directly.  It'll ruin everything.  Even, consistent heat with insulation is a good idea.  As for insulation I mean I usually put a blanket over the chamber at night with reflective bubble wrap.  Oh and of course I read the trays a bedtime story each night.  Just kidding about that last one...
