Hi,
I am considering a misting system and would appreciate input on the following products or suggestions of any others.

Big Apple Herp's misting system - US$110
HerpCages/Barr's misting system - US$20? + DIY?
Pro Products ProMist PM-60 - US$180

I do not need a large sytem, only enough for 6-10 enclosures.
I want it to be low cost/high value, and am very open to any DIY approach or other products I haven't listed.

I am also considering the DIY cage humidity project at http://www.reptilerooms.com/Sections+index-req-viewarticle-artid-101-page-1.html
 
call me old fashioned, but i love the simple pressure sprayer, will metal tip lasts a long time. does the trick, and only costs 15$. i kindof prefer doing it myself over having something automated because when i spray the cages everyday, its my chance to check on the animals, pull out whos out when im spraying/see how theyre doing/check temperatures ect. so... my reply probably isnt that helpful to you, but i spray down 22 enclosures a day. from little boxes, to huge 18 sq ft cages. and... i wouldnt have it any other way.

Hmm, my sprayer doesn't mist very well. What is this metal tip you're talking about? Maybe I need to modify or replace it?

i pulled the sticker off just because it annoyed me. i find these ones hold pressure alot better, its just a simple 0 ring on the inside if it needs to be replaced, and it has a bigger resivoir then your standard plastic tipped pressure sprayer. also a tip- if you unscrew it and de pressureize it after youre done spraying, it will hold its pressure alot longer and alot better.
