Default Motorized spray bottle...

I resorted to a spray bottle like the ones they put pesticides in or spray lawns with...still pumping, but nothing as bad as before when I used to have to squeeze a trigger 10 times or more in each cage...I remember how it would really just cramp my hands up after a while.

With that said, check this out.

Wonder how long the motor last though!?

Ken, I've seen motorized ones at Home Depot in various brands and sizes. I almost purchased one last summer. I don't know what the price is on those Zoomed ones, but being "reptile specific" I'd bet they cost more than the ones at Home Depot and probably not of any better quality. Anyway, I've not tried a motorized one yet. I use a big pump up one like you do. But I would think that if you were going to get a motorized one, I would want one with a bigger bottle than that Zoomed one has. What's the point of having it be motorized if you have to stop and fill it up all the time? I guess what I'm saying is, check out home depot and compare price/size/quality to the zoomed would be my advice. Might try looking on Ebay as well.

I was just suggesting the item, Ethan. I don't really goto Home Depot or Lowe's often at all. And yes, being from Zoo Med I bet it cost twice as much. I just don't see many herp products here so I was posting some stuff...

That's gotta be a serious herp room...heh, I'd almost say a herp house!

I wasn't trying to give you crap man. I was just suggesting that, although that's a great idea, there's probably better alternatives than the Zoomed one. I personally wouldn't mind having a motorized one and might break down and get one like that 2 gallon model. It's only $12. I think I paid more than that for my old pump up one. It would be nice to not have to stop and pump it up.

As for Home Depot and Lowes, I own a house that I'm remodeling. So, unfortunately, I'm in those two stores far more than I want to be! But, on the up side, they do have a lot of stuff that can be applied to our hobby if you keep your eyes open.
