Question Anyone using heat tape?

Ok, so I'm setting up a breeder style rack for my Leopard gecko rescues (I plan on getting more). I got one of those 3 drawer sterilite shelving units.
I've been looking into heating for them. I've found myself with two options for heating on the bottom of these: Heat Rope or Heat Tape.
I have heat ropes on the bottom of my two glass tanks now and feel that they work a lot better that the UTH I had.
I'm leaning toward Heat Tape as the Heat Rope will not fit under these drawers very easily. It's less expensive and just as easy to put where ever you need it to go.
I guess I'm just looking for some of you guys who've had experience using it and hearing some positive or negative feedback.
Should I give it a go?

I think that you'll find that most everyone with a larger sized collection uses Flexwatt. It's much easier and cheaper than buying a uth for every enclosure. It's kind of the "standard" in the herp industry.
