Soterios' Wine Fridge Incubator Build

Thank you for the reply. I ran the cord down and out of the door in the corner. I ran it for an hour and once it got to temp it stayed where I wanted it. I don't have a soldering iron, so it will have to work for now. Thank you as well for the inspiration to build this and providing pics, they helped a lot.

I'm glad to hear it helped. Depending on the way the door seals, maybe you could even trim a little bit of the rubber seal to give the cable some room if you have to run it through the door?

What size tubs did you use?

Whoops, sorry for the delay. I'm using the Sterilite 6 quart clearview latch box. I drilled a small whole on either side of the tub just to allow it to breath a little.

The incubator has a clutch of eight ball python eggs in it now and has been holding a very consistent temp. The heatgun hasn't registered more than about +/- .4 degrees. The other temp probe I have hasn't seen more than a +/- .6 degree swing.
