From earlier posts, I installed the fan kit last night, and the temp still will not stablize. Either it's 97 or 103 it won't hold still! Anyone with experience with a Little Giant incubator is there a trick to get it to stablize? I know the thermostat is veeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrryyyyy sensitive (as compared to a hovabator)- just turning it a little makes it change four degrees. Suggestions please!
 
I have the lg still incubator. I have found in the beginning it takes about 3 days to get it to stabilize. Once it stabilizes don't touch it not even a smidge unless the temp goes up or down drastically. It took me a few days to get it to stabilize once I put in my eggs. If you add eggs or take some away(due to non fertile eggs) it may take 24 hours to stabilize.
 
We have 2 little giants and I defintly know what you mean, What I do is start out a week to two weeks before I'am going to set the eggs, that way I have plenty of time to get the temp right and to stay right. once I do I don't ever touch it again. I try to range mine from 98.5 to 100.0 in the forced-air and in my still air homemade bator I range from 99.0 to 101.0. also watch your humidity sometimes when adding water make sure its not to warm or it might rasie your temp. At least thats something I had noticed when learning myself.
Good Luck on your hatch.

I have one and I installed a computer fan in mine and only had to make a small adjustment and it held perfect. I've not had any problems with it. I hope you get it figured out. Good Luck
