Hopefully you're not going into production with a design that almost works.[/QUOTE]
I didn't design this circuit. Mikeim did. And he has been right on the money all the way through when it comes to his designs, he is an electronics engineer and he to has an excellent rating. It was my changes that caused the problems. And i didn't say that it almost works, i said that it works completely now. I did take the 1n4148's out of the circuit and I'm using a full bridge rectifier in there place. It works 100% now. I am setting 36 eggs today in 21 days if i have a 95-100% hatch rate then it is perfect, i will test for another 2 runs of eggs @ 21 days. Then i will average the hatch rates. Then if except able i will start production.
