"Ideal for hobbyists, elementary schools and small-scale breeders"
The 12V DC supply allows this model to be powered from a car battery; ideal for transporting eggs whilst incubating or as a standby if the electricity fails.
The Brinsea Hatchmaker Incubator - 12V DC Supply has been developed for situations where mains supplies are unreliable or for transporting eggs during incubation. The very low power consumption enables them to be run from ordinary vehicle batteries for many hours between charges. 12v incubators must not be connected direct to mains power, but can be operated from the mains via a 12v transformer/rectifier capable of an output of 2.5 amps (Hatchmaker) and 4 amps (Polyhatch). The voltage is not critical and may be from 11 to 14 volts provided it is reasonably constant.
Brinsea's still air incubators are recognized as long-standing class leaders. They offer an unbeatable combination of reliability, longevity, simplicity and value for money. The natural convection system in Brinsea's still air incubator range provides near ideal conditions for hatching and is flexible and easy to use.
• Main Features
12V DC Supply
Still-Air Incubator
Electronic Thermostat
Manual Egg Turning
The Brinsea Hatchmaker Incubator - 12V DC Supply can be used effectively to incubate from day one through to hatching. The Brinsea Hatchmaker Incubator - 12V DC Supply can also be used as a hatcher for reptiles.
• Temperature Control
Temperature control is provided by Brinsea's proven electronic thermostat which gives very accurate and stable control unaffected by voltage variations and changes in barometric pressure. The sensor and thermometer are mounted in a swivel clip which facilitates easy adjustment to suit a wide range of egg sizes. Temperature adjustment is made by turning an externally mounted spindle. This multi-turn device allows very fine adjustment of temperature and is not easily turned accidentally.
• Cabinet
The Brinsea Hatchmaker Incubator - 12V DC Supply is molded from integrally skinned structural polyurethane which has a core of thermal insulation and hard, durable, impervious surfaces making it readily washable and tough enough to withstand scrubbing. Polyurethane is amongst the toughest of plastics and must not be confused with cheap, fragile alternatives like expanded polystyrene. The excellent thermal properties of polyurethane foam result in low heat losses and low power consumption.
• Humidity and Ventilation
The Brinsea Hatchmaker Incubator - 12V DC Supply has a natural convection system and provides near ideal conditions for hatching and is flexible and easy to use.
