Issues with heat regulation..

[Ratticus]

This is my first time with a homemade incubator, (styrofoam cooler), I am wondering if there's a specific watt bulb that would help with a more constant temp?

Haven't done the styrofoam myself but I would try a 40 watt first.

I used a 25 watt for my styrofoam cooler incubator. It worked best, previously sued a 60 watt and it gpt way to hot.

Right now I have a 15 watt because every other bulb got too hot... We added a computer fan so hopefully that helps
