Homemade Humidifier/mister

[ViperJr]

I personally love Zoomed's ReptuFogger, but it's a bit pricey. I know alot of people here in Sweden buy regular humidifyers that you buy in a hardware store and just modify it. It's alot cheaper.

i just did about 3 hrs of research on this. if you made one yourself its gonna cost you about the same as if you just bought yourself a misting kit/humidifier. you can get a cheap humidifier from walmart for $40 of so but its gonna be nearly 100% manual and you need to plumb it into your tank. personally, it seemed best to spend around $100 as don said on the monsoon or competitor. there is a thread of a review of this item compared to the fairly new mistking kit. try to search for it, its full of good information. personally, this is what i recommend:

I think it's important to point out that a fogger and a misting system are two completely different things. The misting system mimics rain like a fine mist and generally puts out a lot of water. A fogger really just increases ambient humidity and nothing else. I have a mistking system and I like it a lot - it's reliable and I haven't had to mess with it since I set it up on day 1. However, I like a lot about the Exo-Terra monsoon, and I would love to test drive one, if only to know if some of the horror stories are true .
