Mistking starter kit? or Ultimate value kit?

[allllllen]

sooo im about ready to get bulbasaur a good misting system. My habba mist has
driven me insane, and its hard to give him the proper amount of mistings per day since i have school and work. So i was wondering for those of you who do own a Mistking system. Which one did you purchase and why?
My enclosure is 2'x2'x4' so im uncertain if i really need 3 nozzles but would like
your opinions .
Thanks!

Buy the started kit, I only have 1 nozzle in any of my cages. I can't see 3 in a cage - way over kill. I put the nozzles in the front left or right corner aim it across the cage to cover cage. left front to right rear or right front to left rear. I think you will find that does the job great.

all you really need for one cham is the most basic mistking setup. enjoy.

You don't need three nozzles for that size of a cage. One misting nozzle should be enough.

 

[Mr Wilson]

You def only need only need one nozzle per cage. i have two 2x2x4 and two 18x18x36 all w/ one each. Just mist around 4 times a day and you should be fine

Is the Zip Drip valve worth getting?

 

[laurie]

Yes you want the zip drip.It is what takes the pressure off your lines.

 

[allllllen]

ok, thank you very much everyone! for all the info .
Greatly appreciated!

basic system is 100 or 110 isn't it?
ultimate is 190 and free shipping!

Plus you get everything and have the option of saving the other nozzles for new chams or just resell them and nearly break even.

One nozzle is all you need because you don't want it misting the entire cage. If you end up ordering a larger package I will buy a nozzle/wedge off you if I haven't ordered them myself already. Second chameleon is getting here soon.

is the timer really needed?

I bought my mistking from Josh's Frogs...

I purchased my system from Josh's Frogs he is in the united states and you will save bigtime on shipping! I went with the three nozzle system and use two in my cage one in the rear and another up front.

not really... you can always turn on the system by youself, but then it isn't an automatic misting system anymore.

 

[Silkyslim]

I just got my timer last week. It's heaven sent! Worth every penny and super easy to configure.

Ah gotcha, I thought it was a second timer. I already have a none automatic Mister, don't need two. lol

The Ultimate

is what I have.
Not only does it include the timer and all of the installation hardware to cut the tubing and to secure the tubing in place (clamps, screen wedges, etc.), but you also get a "zip-drip" valve which releases all the pressure in the lines after misting is completed.
It's an easy system to set-up and I have no regrets about it whatsoever.
While you don't have more than 1 cham now, you very well might acquire another

I really think for anyone getting their first automated mister its "ultimate value" all the way unless you are REALLY sure you will never own a second or third or fourth..you know what I mean!

Either way, automated misters are LEGIT.

 

[BigBlue]

get the ultimate value system, it is well worth it. You need the timer and it comes with it. You will love this setup, I have 6 cages with 1 head in each cage. I am presently setting up 2 more cages so I will be adding 2 more heads. This system will handle it with no problem. It's very expandable.

 

[txskunk]

great

Great thread lots of good info for this newbie...

 

[GilaTequila]

So quick question to add here. If you go with the larger setup with multiple heads can you only use the one and just add more later when you need to or do you have to use all three now and still have an option for more later?

Just a tad confused there and I am in the same boat. I only have one cham I got recently and am not planing on any others but I like reptiles so may get something in the future that would like mist as well. I do plan on getting some beaded lizards and one of guys on the gila monster forum I frequent is building an 8ft cage for his beadeds with an automatic rain system that sounds pretty cool.

Does Josh have the best price?
