Thanks to all who replied to this question.

Several regrigerated incubators (Revco BOD, Fisher Precision, EJS systems)
have had reported temperature problems. At least one group has gone to the
trouble of making its own temperature programmable crystallisation boxes
(http://www.biochem.oulu.fi/~pkursula/xray/9.html) which might be available
semi-commercially. The consensus (3/10 replies) appears to be that the
Hampton M6 incubators covering a range of 4-60 degrees are the most
dependable. The down side is these can only hold 6 Linbro trays.
