Fogger, yes or no?

[Stofey]

I will say I was mostly concerned because I've never seen him bask before, like at all. He never comes out of his hide and this was the first time. After a bit he even crawled closer to the fogger and decided to use the hide near it which he hasn't used in a while. I keep seeing people saying they're worried about RI with a fogger, but I also keep researching and can't find anyone who's experienced it. I only find people who are worried, but not people who've had it happen.

My tank screen top is completely covered with foil except where his ceramic heat lamp is to allow some air to vent and to allow the heat in but not out as easily. The air is so dry here that running a humidifier in the room does little to nothing because it doesn't reach the tank before the air dries out. As stated, I do live in a desert. Humidity is uncommon and very hard to maintain which is why I went with the fogger.

I replaced the water in the fogger with purified water when he was basking because I was worried about contaminants in the tap water I used originally. Shortly after he came down off his perch and that's when he moved to the hide closer to the fogger. I wonder if he likes it better with the purified water?

I just really want to get him to shed. It's been over two months and he's still a juvenile. He should have shed twice by now. With the fogger, his humidity and temps are now perfect day and night. I also have the fogger set to very low so it's not a thick fog at all. It's a barely visible fog and the moment the fogger shuts down the fog vanishes only leaving behind the humidity. (It shuts down when the humidity gauge gets near 60%)

I'm worried, but I figured I'd give it another week or so maybe to see if he starts showing signs of shedding or not. He's also still eating fine with the fogger, he snapped up a mouse yesterday without issue so I think I'm gonna hang onto this setup a little longer as he seems fine so far. If he starts showing signs of issues, I'll obviously change strategy but for now, this is all I have.

I will also add that I have tried moss and a lot of it but it dries out in less than a day. I might try a mossy hide next to see if he'll use that to help the humidity but, like I've said, I'm gonna hang on to the fogger for now and see how this goes.

Thank you guys for your help, I really do appreciate and I have taken all of your guys' advice into account, I promise! And it truly is appreciated!
