What is the difference? Incubators

[waibel zoo]

I need (and I use this term loosly according to the hubby) another incubator. I can get a Hovabator 2362N with fan and turner for $122 or a Hoabator 1602N with fan and turner for $133. Both hold 41 eggs. What is the difference? I cant find one. Which is better? The more expensive one comes with a digital hygrometer/thermometer. But I would have to calibrate the stupid thing because they are never right. So not realy a deciding factor. Help me pick please?

According to the GQF site the 2362N was built with the fan and the 1602N was built as a thermal (still air) model.
If you are loking at a 1602 with a fan it must be an add on. That might account for the price difference.
Personally I'd go with the 2362 and save the 11 bucks.

If you could swing another $50-$60 you could get the Genesis 1588 with the digital thermostat, fan, and turner.

Get a Brinsea. It's almost a set and forget.

I have a brinsea and love it, but I need an incubator like now and Brinsea takes FOREVER to get here, or I would spend the extra and order it.
