Anyone have good results with little giant still air incubator?

I had great luck with mine. I did a dry hatch and the humidity never got over 30. Then I got it up to 50-55 for lockdown. When they were hatching it went up to 65-70. I had great results and 13 out of 14 hatched. I didnt have a fan or a turner.
 
I just love mine, but technically, mine is not a still air any longer. I cannibalized an old computer fan and installed it in the top half. Piece of cake to do. I have my first batch in there right now and I HAVE 2 EGGS PIPPING!!

I hatched a couple hundred in them last year. They work fine for me.

All in all I have about 10 dozen in Little Giants now, some of them still air.

We also just bought one and have it plugged in to stabilize. Our will be plugged in for almost a week when we set eggs: I want to time it so the local Tractor Supply has their chicks in when ours hatch. We also bought an indoor/outdoor digital thermometer/hygrometer to put in the LG. We have the LG in a back laundryroom where the temp is constant and have the thermometer readout in the living room right next to the tv so we can see it constantly.
Crossing our fingers as we collect eggs this week.
 
I have an LG too and had one successful hatch so far......course, it was only two eggs

Mine is a still air also and the temp on the two digital therms reads 99-100 and I also have a little humidity thingy in there that just reads that so I have a general idea what the temp and humidity is.

Right now its running between 45-55 %. So far so good.

I also am using a egg carton to turn the eggs in. So far things look like they are developing ok.
