I have been less busy these days coupled with fasting, that can make one weak but I hate idleness. so I have an idea of the egg incubator so I said why not try it after all it cost me only 1k to do it cos I have most of what I need. In this case I will be using a 50watt light build, a heat sink from dead desktop, an Egg crate, a 12v motor from car door, a 4channel relay, a DHT11 tempreture n humidity sensor, raspberry pi 2, Arduino uno and Arduino nano but in this case I will be using Arduino nano cos I won't be needing an LCD display until I scale up the prototype. so this is what I achieve so far. You are always welcome to ask questions or make suggestion and critisize. I will write the code and update you guys with it. A video will follow when m done. I hope I will inspire sum1 to make use of his\her time

The extena frame is for the turner which wil be turning the egg about 45deg every hour

Feeling you bruv. Waiting anxiously and inquisitively for the completion

ok am still on the code as I write this text. it's just that NEPA is not friendly at all I could have gone far by now.

Kudos! What's the voltage/power rating going to be like?

m using 350w power pack but the turner motor draws 12v 30A and the Arduino micro controller draws 5v 2.5mA regulated voltage. while the bulb is 220v ac at 50w cos I want it to heat the container quickly.

Good One Bro!

Hmmmmm. Even tho I understand little of the technicalities, still sounds very interesting
