runsatnite 7 Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 the best thing to do is to convert it to electric by putting a dull emmiter bulb in the chimmny instead of the wick and then set it to run controling it the same way as if on parafin they are great incubators 2 Quote Link to post
