Incubator ?

Ya your should have the probe in the middle of the incubator. Think of it like the flexwatt is heating the air, so you want the probe to sample the air. If you were to put the probe on the flexwatt you would get a very accurate temp on the flexwatt but not the air. Also try to setup the fans so they work togeather to move the air around. like you are trying to push air around an oval track if that makes any sense.

Got it

Thanks!Mike

can i ask why so much flexxwatt?,ours is running 2ft,we had 3ft,but with our thermostat we couldnt get the temps low enough,and Mike,you shouldnt need waterbottles,they just even out the heat,with the fans in place,i would dump them and free up the space bro

heres a couple shots of ours:

Water bottles are on the door.so they are not in the wat.
Thanks.Mike

well,,that makes sense,and actually,takes away air space,am sure it does save a degree or 2 when the door is open,,,smart man,howd the probe/thermo change work out so far?

So far so good it held at 88.6 over night.Again thanks to everyone!

another decent idea,,does your thermometer have a min/max memory?,reset that,and check it in 2 days

this is my home made incubator.
I used an old refrigerator ( without engine ) and I've built with microclimate hot source , microclimate proportional thermostat and 2 fan inside.
A light and 2 webcam to see when snakes come out eggs!
That's perfect because the temperature doesn't move of 0,1 C°
I have 31,9 C° constant.
PERFECT!
Now I have 4 eggs of spider inside , 120 grams each egg.
