Hi, I'm working on a project and need a constant heat source (no open
flame) so an electric burner would be best, but from what I've read a
vast majority of them cycle on and off, is there a way to modify them
to make them run constant?


Then it won't be a constant heat source. It will be influenced by
surrounding temperature and load, etc. What you apparently need is a
device which maintains an exact temperature. If you remove the thermostat
from most such devices it will self destruct.

If you'd give the application it might help.
