Automatic mister
I’m using a zoomed automatic mister but I’m looking for a more efficient and simple automatic mister. What do you guys recommend?

Re: Automatic mister
There's no real need to have a mister for a BP.

Re: Automatic mister
I need a new automatic mister because my humidity drops to 35% if I don’t use my automatic mister. I’m just looking for a better automatic mister since the one I’m using doesn’t spread the water evenly in the tank.

Re: Automatic mister
I would look into other options besides misting several times a day to raise the humidity.

Re: Automatic mister
What's your setup like? If it's glass, have you sealed off most of the top, switched to Cypress Mulch, and tried sphagnum moss?

Re: Automatic mister
its probly due the bulbs your using which is causing your humidity problems, i would switch to using a heatmat on a t stat :)
bps prefer belly heat ;)

Re: Automatic mister
I also think a undertank heat pad would be better and i a had a habba mister for my rainbow boa and it was the worst reptile product i ever bought. :(

Re: Automatic mister
its def your bulbs that are causing your humidity loss

Re: Automatic mister
The ceramic heat emitters are the reason that the humidity is low but I need them to keep the temperatures exact. I do have a under tank heater for the hot side. The habba mister works OK but is not that great it does keep the humidity level perfect. All of the sheds have been complete and perfect I just want to get a better more efficient automatic mister. Please recommend any automatic mister.

Your money would be better spent on a reliable thermostat.

your hand? i think you are worring a little to much, the humidity does not have to be perfect. unless it is extremely low they should be fine, they are from africa and the humidity is not always perfect.

Re: Automatic mister
You appear adamant about using a mister. As many have mentioned, it's really overkill if you just use undertank heating, but since you asked a direct question and restated that you really want a direct answer.. here ya go..

Exact temps, perfect humdiity. Sounds good to me. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Re: Automatic mister
I might have to make a mister, my temps suck, even with a heat pad and a thermostat, both sides are cool, if i turn a heat lamp on the high side gets to where it needs to be but the cool side is only a few degrees lower, and humidity is up when I mist and then gone again...Im gonna try a lower watagge bulb, see if that helps. I have rebuilt engines that makes getting this :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r: where its supposed to be seem like a cake walk. He does eat regularly, hasnt shed yet, and keeps sitting in his water bowl even when there is hardly ne water in it....so i dunno, which the damn thing could talk to tell me what he wants.
