Title: Incubator Heating
Post by: birdguychris on May 21, 2004, 11:22:49 PM

I figured out how to fix up my old Oakes incubator. The problem is that it only has 2 out of 6 Ceramic heating units. These are heating elements that screw into a light bulb socket, but instead of a light, it has a ceramic cone shape with a heating element wrapped around it. Does anyone know where I can buy these, for how much? Could I just use regular light bulbs instead?
Thanks
