    Coleman Inubator Help!

    I am wondering if anyone has or knows of a thread on this site or another that teaches you how to make a incubator out of a Coleman Cooler.

    Re: Coleman Inubator Help!

    Here are a few pics of mine...when wiring up the flexwatt make sure to thread the wire through first and then make the connections...

    This shows the thermostat probe and two temp probes to monitor temps...also shows the heat tape connections...



    I just used a wire rack to set the tubs on. You can also use that light grating stuff...I have a plexiglass cover (you can see all the dust on it) to check eggs without letting out any heat...not really necessary though...



    I have all the cables threaded through the drain in the cooler...doesn't seem to affect heat retention or cause any hot/cool spots...



    I have the two temp monitors and thermostat mounted on the front...



    Most important things are to use the appropriate amount of heat tape and use a good thermostat...
