Looking for advice. I have built a home made cabinet incubator. its 32 " tall by 16" wide, by 18 Inches deep. I have installed an Incukit with the basic thermostat on the top of the cabinet in the center. I set the stat to 99.5 degrees. The sensor is located at the top close to the heater. My problem is if i put a digital thermostat on the top egg shelf, it reads 104-106. i have added extra air flow holes and the temperature is so irradic all over the incubator. Im not sure what else to do. I was led to understand this unit if you just put it in a box and set the temperature, because of the fan, heater combo, it would regulate it very nicely. Its not the case. I had it set based on the sensor temperature off of the t-stat. it was reading 99.5. so i set 160 eggs. They all started to form, but i lost them all. I put the digital stat in and realized how hot it was. it doesnt make sense since the stat is set to and shuts off at 99.5.. Any advice? Thanks,
Darren
