Loving ur videos. What he’d 3 or 4 now. I bought a new GQF 1202E and while I am waiting for it found an old pre-2007 1202A cabinet GQF I think it is. It is missing the wafer. Helps temp as it has a dial and the wafer is the back up it seems. Am I safe to run it without the back up? Thinking of just trying a dozen eggs to start and be sure it works well as is.

It will work without the back-up wafer installed, but if the electronic thermostat goes bad and doesn’t regulate temp correctly, there is nothing to keep the temp from going too high. The wafer back-up is a sort of safety device. All that being said, there are a lot of incubators that don’t have a back up system.

Right on thanks. I ordered a wafer and the whole thermostat to wire in. I just replaced the wafer for now and kept the rest as a back up as it works. Set it to 102°F and the eggs when candled at day 7 are all growing well other than a few that were not fertilized. Now I want to get another used one and fix up. Or thinking about adding an egg turner to the old one I got. Seems as though they sell all the parts for it from a local company. Will be $300-$600 looks like tho may be not worth it. Just use it as a hatcher and have 2 incubators with turners in the end.

I’ve never had that problem. GQF custom service might be able to help you on that one. I am really not a fan of the command center.

josh courville what type of thermostat(s) does it have, wafer or electronic? Are they functioning properly? Micro switches on wafer style can go bad. Electronic thermostats won’t work on all models.

Inkbird makes electronic and even wifi thermostats of all kinds I got a wifi enabled 120v plug in style that can turn on heating or cooling and use it to control an outdoor brooder box in -20°C maintaining a temp of 35°c (95°f) with a heat lamp and the wifi inkbird. I love it!

@@munirahmed9218 Eggs don't require a tremendous amount of ventilation. An easy way to ventilate a cabinet is to drill holes about 1" diamter in the rear of the incubator. 1 or 2 holes at the top and another 1 or 2 at the bottom of the back panel. You can regulate the amount of air by putting tape across the holes. To regulate the humidity, open or close the holes until your humidity readings are in the normal range. Be sure that your heater can keep the temperature in the normal range with the ventilation holes being open. It's a bit of a balancing act.
