" As built, the maximum heater power output is 20 Watts... which is adequate for a small to medium (10-40) size clutch of eggs arranged in a single layer. It is also possible to increase the power by adding an external heating element."
if I am not mistaken a LG is 25 watts. so this is smaller then an LG???
here are a few of my resource I have been using in my quest for a 21st century bator

about a one cubic ftoot bator I just had a fairly sucessful hatch with I was using 120 watts incandesant bulbs shielded when I opened the door to turn the eggs this amount of heat recovered quickly without overshooting the target temp. I tried different amounts wattage wise I settled on 3 40 wat bulbs HTH
