I heart Reptifogger.

Yes, you are correct, this will not happen with distilled. However, in my own experience, you really don't need to use distilled water with the ReptiFogger. However, if using tap water, some maintenance will be required, like you said. The "condenser" is just a metal plate and can easily be cleaned.
Just wanted to give people a heads up, but perhaps it's more directed towards Exo-terras screen mesh, which they claim to be stainless

There are several different alloys of stainless. Perhaps Exo-Terra's screen tops are a mild stainless so it isn't entirely rust resistant. I've seen stainless rust and tarnish. Just depends on how much lead the mix with the steel that makes it more rust resistant.

You are probably right. But it's really bad from Exo-Terra's part. I mean, if you sell a terrarium, and advertise it as a "Tropical rain forest terrarium", and claims that's it's great to use with their own Monsoon (which shoots a lot more water than the ReptiFogger), shouldn't it at least be able to resist a little fog? I mean, rain forest are quite often quite humid...
But now I'm getting quite far away from the topic...
