emmastar Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 The 3 in looking at are the Fiem Smart 20 i like the viewing on this incy Brinsea Octagon 20 Advance EX i have used brinsea before and liked it , nt to sure how important the humidity extra is , R-Com 20 Digital no idea about this one but it looks good . I want to put the eggs in and hopefully do as little as poss for the 21 days. I would like to view the hatching prosess and take pics so a clear window is important . Open to other sugestions if you have had good or bad experience with any of these please let me know . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 I have the Octagon and have had the Rcom Both very good A friend has the Fiem and thinks its best thing ever, if she puts an egg in and its fertile it normally hatches which is very impressive I personally love my Octagons, the humidity readout is very useful to have but without the attachable module its not auto humidity where the Rcom is Even with that in mind my choice would be the Octagon, it just wins hand down for me but it gives you quite a restricted view of the hatch. The Fiem will give you the clearest view of the hatch and the Rcom falls in between as the window is tinted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmastar Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks I hate chosing things i did like the brinsea mini advance i had appart from the turning noise was loud . the octogan 20 im looking at has the humidity box thingy but i hate complicated . I like the look of the fiem the viwing is just what im looking for but like the brinsea and rcom dosnt look to have any readouts like temp and days to go , i know there not biggies but this is going to be at my work for a month with people viewing so days to go is good . if im going to spend this mutch on an incy i want to get it right ( i guess its a small ammount compared to some people s incys ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
