try googling 'westfalia mail order' and search their website. they're about £30 and good for the price. pretty basic though - they're either fully on or off

Beat me to it. I found this a few months ago and have been meaning to buy one!
Very cheap, well is around 1/3 of the price of other ones on the market anyway.
Im also going to be drying some jerky untill the mushies come.
the westfalia one is ok, gets pretty hot though so i dont know if that would affect potency

yup its much harder. A few years ago you couldn't find a pressure canner in this country (you could get pressure COOKERS but not canners).
But hey at least shrooms were legal here until recently ;-)

hey mate
to be honest, for a fruiting chamber just get a large rubbermaid container (like a big plastic box that you would use for storage) and buy a bag of perlite. put the perlite in the fruiting chamber and put cakes on top (on a piece of aluminium foil or something). It'll cost you like £10 and it will be larger than the thing you're looking at/have bought.
leave the wardrobe door open for light. Shrooms dont need loads but they need a bit. even if you just shine a desk light into the wardrobe for 30 minutes a day it should be fine. dont bother spending money on any lighting though, its a waste of money.
also you really dont need the heating mat. Shrooms when they're fruiting need a slightly COLDER temperature than they did when you incubate the jars (letting the mycelium colonize). You could use the heating mat for incubating the jars if you want, but dont bother using it when they're fruiting.
drilling holes is probably a good idea. fan the FC with a rolled up magazine every day as well if you want to ensure really good FAE (fresh air exchange)
as for pre-sterilized substrate im not sure.
good luck

oh i see, if that's all the room you have then the thing you've bought is a good idea. hopefully someone else will post about holes in the FC, ive never done it myself so i really can't advise you.
since you're in scotland definately use the heating mat for incubation lol
