the finished 'bator.....

[Royal Tartan]

....meant to post some pics of this a while back ...clean forgot !

anyways after ( eventually !! ) putting the front perspex panel on for viewing .... I tested it out .....with the strip light ( 18 watts ) its too hot ( 101 F ) without its sits nicely between 88.2 - 90.3 F ......I still have to put a cple' o' small fans in to aid airflow ....humidity at 90% with a tub at bottom full of damp spagnum moss.

I would really like to have some form of light in there.....anyone any ideas?





TIA

Happy Holidays

LED is the way to go! Waterproof, heatproof, and non-heat emitting...they don't go out much either. Nice incubator!

Nice Inc, Royal! I like it.
For those who use lights: do you leave them on all of the time or just use a switch to put them on for viewing? I am thinking of installing lights myself.. the flashlight gets old and I only have two hands.
