DIGITAL vs WAFER

[Old Man Tom]

I posted earlier about a Marsh Rolex incubator. It comes from the factory with a wafer that sets over an on/off switch. There is a light that comes on and off when the coils are receiving power. I did a test run for 6 hrs and the temp held at 100 degrees. They make a digital switch that sells for $75. My question is should I change to digital or just keep a new wafer and switch on hand. Thanks TOM

Hey Tom, why spend $75 when it's already doing what you need it to do? You can buy a digital thermostat for less than $25.

I think it would be worth your while to switch to digital, most wafers gradually increase or decrease the temp, and it changes even more when you actually get some eggs in it.
