    incubator fan

    it should say it either on the front or back of the converter. but I think you'll be fine. its safe. its low voltage. just tape or wire nut the connections. put the fan in your bator attached to the underside of the lid. the fan needs to have a gap of about a half inch from the lid. the fan...

    the center of the egg is supposed to be 99.5°?

    that still does not answer my question. I know the temps of incubators and how and where to measure it. my plan is to take a plastic Easter egg and glue the two halves together the make it water tight. drill a small hole in one end. fill it with water. put a thermometer in the hole. and seal...
