    that type can work but their thermostats are very very bad. they tend to go out and cook the eggs.

    Don't do it. I used to work there. They are cheaply built, and don't hold humidity. You have to buy the fan extra if you want to circulate, and yes the thermostats are bad. The stores don't carry extras and it takes forever to order. There were probably up to 5 returned every year.
