hey shroomerites! as ive recently had to construct a new inc and disliked a tit (since i simply dont need such a huge thing) i came about this nice idea for small scale incubator heating and though of sharing it with the shroomerites! introducing the heatbomb: the heatbomb itself is a completely maintenance free heating system, designed for small sized incubators - THE choice for ppl who do not want to worry about evaporation of water or possible contams breeding in the wet air inside the incubator if the used to have a fishtank heater in a open water jar or alike. materials needed: an aquarium heater a plastic bottle that u can fit ut heater inside silicone gel duct tape some boiled (distilled/germ free) water how to assemble the heatbomb: 1.) its up to u to find one heater and a plastic bottle that takes the heater inside without leaving too much space on the sides. 2.) once u got ur bottle and heater ready, wash off all the paper lables that might stick on it and give the inside of the bottle a nice hot water wash since it cant be bad to kill all the germs u may be able to kill. 3.) next, boil some water or take ur distilled water and fill the bottle up to the brim. 4.) now, insert ur heater, it will cause the water inside the bottle to splash over since the mass of the heater forces it to, but its allright since that way u dont leave any possible air inside (i, sloppily still did though )5.) next, wipe the area around the top of the bottle dry and start to apply silicone gel to where the heater enters the bottle, just apply a lot of it, u want to have a good and waterproof seal. 6.) let this sit for a day to allow it to dry fully (silicone takes some time) 7.) now, apply duct tape over the top of the bottle and the heater, covering the whole silicone seal as an extra 'anti leakage' precaution. 8.) wipe down the heatbomb with rubbing alcohol to sterilize it. well, taht's it, there u got ut very own heatbomb, ready to use ![]() the jars pictured were entirely incubated in the heatbombed incubator and reached full colonisation within 10 days, its straight rye. sure, it can never ever beat a proper TiT but for ppl who just need small scale spawn its THE choice since it works like a charm and heats up ur inc pretty fast ![]() here some more pics for u, just for kicks: typical heatbomb setup: different view of heatbomb setup: closeup on some heatbomb'd jars: fully colonised heatbomb'd jars (after 10 days): i hope some of u find this handy, i sure love it! and btw, im proud to contribute my first 'tek' ![]() peace ohm
