    Anyone use Hot Box Incubators?

    I'm wondering if anyone here uses these incubators for their clutches? If so, how well do they work?

    I am going to buy one in the future. I'm pretty dead set on wanting it.

    I have never used one, but I have seen their incubators first hand and they are great. Solid and functional. A little bit too costly for my taste, but if you have it, spend it. They are great.

    Those are some nice incubators, but I can build 2 true cooler incubators that work as well and hold twice as many tubs, for the same or less cost.
    I guess it comes down to expendable cash, if I had it and didn't like to build my own, I'd be all over the hotbox inc.

    Re: Anyone use Hot Box Incubators?

    I bought the 36" model. I really like it. I was going to try to build one myself, but with this being my first season to get eggs, I really didn't want to chance doing something wrong and it not hold temps or just whatever could make something go wrong. Now, after the fact, I am still very happy with it, but as said before, they are very pricey, and will build any future incubators.

    I have been eyeballing these (as well and the BoaMaster and AP ones)

    Can you post up some pics of it in action?

    Absolutely, I just went to take these to post them. I took a couple with lights on and lights off just so you can see the difference.









    Here you go.
