Thought i would share my incubator project with you guys....
I talked with a "guy" that hooked me up with a broken mini pepsi cooler.
Day 1..






I removed the motor. The cooler had a light and a fan allready in it that worked, so i left them in and hooked them up to the johnsons control, so the light and the fan come on with the heat... I 1st thought about having the fan run all the time and the light, but because the johnson controler is where the old motor is (wanted it hidden), i needed some way to know the heat was on.....might change it.... The fan is alittle over kill, im thinking the fan on all the time might cool it too much.

I cleaned it out, put flexwatt 11 inch on the bottom, covered it with heat tape, took the pepsi sticker off... will be replacing it with my "Lance Portal Reptiles" stickers. Their being made now.









I placed the Temp indicator on the middle row...dont know where to put it for now



U guys think of anything i might change?Huh?

thanks, lp
