Rob,

That\'s an excellent one. My first attempt at a Rubbermaid brooder bombed because I set a 250W infrared bulb over it. So, I ended up building this big wooden thing (which I\'m now using as a grow-out coop), and suspending a 100W non-infrared bulb over.

How did you rig yours to turn off an on with the temps?
