INCUBATING w/FRIENDS! w/Sally Sunshine Shipped Eggs No problem!

If that is what it says, it looks to me that the light module runs on 110VAC. Not 12VDC. I would not use it in that case.
However, that power supply unit you have is enough to run 10 computer fans 

Thanks. Now I just gotta find 10 fans to make a monster incubator for.

Are you trying to set it up and run on 12vdc or 115vac

So if I wired a power cord to the light and than plugged it straight into an outlet would that work?

Was thinking 12v cause thats the power supply I had.

Should I not turn shipped eggs at all for first 7 days?

If I'm right about the unlabeled voltage yes. If you try it, make sure there's enough space between you and that circuit. If the voltage does step down somewhere between the wall and that circuit board, it could get hot fast, smoke, and possibly start a fire. That's why I recommended not using it. But it may be fine too. Without more info I can't say 100%. I would try it outside with a long extension cord lol. Wouldn't be the first smoke test I've performed...

In essence that's what I have set up. I set it up for my LG9200 so there isn't a light but I took a extension cord and cut it on either end. Left roughly 1 ft worth of cord for the female end and about 6 ft for the male end. Male end plugs into wall and female is where the incubator plugs in. I plan to use the same controller when I get around to building my big incubator. Battery back up would be alot easier with a 12 volt system if that's a concern but I'm not as familiar with how to set it up.

What should I do for an egg with a loose air cell in an incubator with an autoturner that rolls eggs on their side?
@Sally Sunshine

Is there any way to hand turn that one, upright in a cup or something like that?

I'm at school 5 days a week for 6 hours, and Gina from the house a lot, but maybe. I read where someone doesn't turn her shipped eggs at all for first 7 days, and keeps them upright.

That depends on air cells. If the air cells are ok, treat as normal eggs.

Here are some helpful links.
