home made incubator question

OK, I see that.
Now you've got me wondering if I wrote down the correct part #... But it must be, thats the only one they carry that looks like mine.

I tried getting the #'s off mine, but can't see them well and can't open the bator cause I have eggs in it.

Mine is 90 - 150, so the one I have is not even listed on their site.

I just walked in and studied what they had and bought this one, but its been 9 months or so ago, and I got that part # after the fact, I should have saved the package.

Mine is 90-150 too

Well, I just finished building my incubator and it "almost" works. It all turns on and it heats up to 99.5 degrees and the light bulb turns off. But when the temperature goes down below 99.5 degrees, it does not turn back on. Does anyone know what I did wrong?

Mine would shut off at 102 and turn back on at around 94,,,, I figured better to have them cool than overheat

That's an idea, I will try it tomorrow.

You may need to add a heat sink to get the temps to not swing too widely. Jars of warm water will help the temps stabilize as water doesn't give up its heat as quickly or as easily as air.

Also when trying to stabilize the humidity and temps you want the fan to blow across your water source and keep the warm moist air moving.

thanks miss prissy - my humidity is awsome! It is staying right at 42%.
