I will also put a drop of food color into the water. This way I can see the water level better and generally do not have to open the bator anymore than necessary to fill or to turn eggs.

I think because this bator is smaller than a hoverbator.. the heating and the humidity is more consistant. You do not lose valuable time in the reheat when you have opened to turn the eggs. Being the compartment is small it takes less time to re up and also the humidity level comes back fast.
