    Found a use for the Zoomed ReptiTemp Rheostats

    I know the fans are way overkill BUT they were $6 each at Walmart
    Plus I have a thing for red

    Nice. When I build a big incubator I will keep this in mind!

    Be sure to test the fans out over a week or so. I've found that the fans can put off more heat than they dissipate and the temperature inside the incubator can raise above your desired set point. It sure does look pretty though!

    A week??? My little bator ran for almost a year before I put eggs in it
    I have a clutch in the little one but after they hatch out in 2 to 3 weeks then I will move the t-stat to the big one and get it up and running.
