Yeah:weee Nice picture! Wish I had movement :-(

Thanks artathart....sorry you are not having movement yet...what day are you on?

Day 8. Maybe the eggs are to dark, or my flashlight isnt bright enough. I looked for a brighter one at TSC but they didnt have a better one then I already have.

I am hoping it is your flashlight.....Have you tried Home Depot or Walmart...the more lumens the brighter it will be...
 
Yeah I have a 9 bulb LED light now. Not sure how bright it is. I will got to Lowes. I always forget to stop in.

They sell pretty cheap Coleman flashlights at wall mart that are on the higher end lumen wise. I would still be using mine if our cat hadn't decided to play the roll the flashlight off the table onto the floor and break it game... Lol

Do you think it would be any brighter then my little 9 bulb LED flishlight? I only paid a few bucks for it.
 
When I was at Lowes looking at lights for candling last week I compared the lumen output listed on the packages and the 9 LED lights (around 25 lumens) were actually quite a bit less powerful than the little $13, one-bulb Energizer inspection light I ended up with (40 lumens). I was surprised by that; I figured more bulbs = more light, but I was wrong. Try to find something in the 40 lumen range if you can, it makes all the difference in the world.
 
MikeS(erama) :

It definitely is. I have the 9 led light as well, and the coleman was by far much brighter. The one drawback on it was that it sucks battery power up like crazy!

I have a "First Light" that was given to me last year ( not for candling), but it is AMAZING...It sucks up batter power like crazy too.....​
