Might be dumb, but what if you made an adjustable shelf and moved it up at lockdown?

Don't know if having it above would help or hurt, but if it didn't work you would still have the ability to use it in the under position.

I had always thought that having it at the bottom with the water pan would be the best location .With a fan or two blowing over it at the bottom and then the same amount of fans on the top blowing in the oppisite direction creating a circular air flow that would engolf the whole interior of the cabnet thus keeping the temperature consistant every where ?? That and maybe a fan pulling the air through the false back and blowing back through the centre of the cabnet ..............create a wind tunnel ( air flow ) inside the cabnet in a sense . I would think that i could control the humidity better with the pan over the heating coils , and I would get 100% humidity for the final three days , kinda like a steam bath ??

Have you checked out the DIY incubators on here?

I don't know if what you're talking about works, but you may find the answer on some of those pages.
