See, my totally unpopular opinion is....
Open the 'bator, quickly check all eggs underneath for pips, reclose 'bator.
Personally anytime I've heard peeping, there's already been a pip.. just sometimes it was hidden at the bottom of the shell. I've lost too many to let it go to chance. I'm a hatching newbie though.. so take that with a grain of salt.
Keep us updated JJ!
And you too, Wendy! How many are you hatching this time??
Bad bad bad!! 
I do the same but my Brinsea comes back up to temp and 65% humidity in 2 minutes. I've ruined
hatched and killed birds doing that with my Little Giant.
OK JJ what's goin on there?
We've got 10 3 day olds downstairs in the bator. It must be a hatching week.

still only 1 ee hatched and 2 pips and nothing in the other incubator, we threw out alot of mailed eggs, it stinks,
whats your update jj?
meg, i am not sure, there are just 2 ee's , bob whites, a silkie, and 2 buff orp eggs, and i cant really see but i am hoping some goldlaced wyandottes, but they could be just std mixes, all but the silkie were mailed, not so good results.
