    Imagine trying to find 300 tubs :)


    But as far as having an accurite in every tub... the nice part about racks that are all on the same piece of flexwatt, and if your warm air is circulating in the room keeping top of rack and bottom of rack similar temps, you don't need an accuwrong in every tub.

    I did this for a little while in my one rack, and I found out that all of the temps stayed constant as well as humidity (makes sense when you use the same heat, same tubs, same substrate in every tub.

    Plus I found out that the accu"rite" were often off as much as 3-5 degrees and 10-20% humidity, even if they were all placed in the same tub.

    Good enough for an approximation, but I ended up going with a temp gun instead. If you run through your tubs you can verify they are all the same/almost identical.

    Oops...forgot to add that....3 are from Rich...the others are from Neil...sorry about that...

    I thought I recognized the slots in the side of one of them, and the same Sterilite tubs! :P
