Egg boxes seems difficult to setup but it's really easy.
Here is what I do
I have 7 quarts sterilite eggs boxes with light difuser, in which I put 4 cups of perlite, and 2 cups of water, and I do not use press and seal.
This has never failed me, condensation is close to none, it only starts building up during the last week of incubation which is normal as the egg temperture will rise up.
It's a fool proof headach free method for me, eggs don't dry out or get wet. I put them in the incubator and forget about them for the next couple of weeks ;)

It's like everything else different people different ways, when I produced my first clutch that the route I chose because my main fear was getting egg to wet or to dry because of failure to mix the substrate improperly with the traditional egg in the substrate method. It worked for me and I never felt the need to try anything else when it comes to incubation, the only thing I have changed is the temp at which I incubate, I have done anywhere from 86 to 90 and now I do 88.5 every year. ;)
