Newbie question about auto mister

[bburgess8686]

I just joined today. My family has just adopted an ambanja panther chameleon. We got him from Scremeleons. We purchased the entire set up which included the Zoomed habba mister. We had some leaking issues and got a replacement. The new one is very loud and not very effective. We are looking at purchasing a new mister but need to keep in mind the budget. We can't afford a $200 mister. We do need something that is automatic so our friends can watch him while we are on vacation.

The question I have is what do all of you think of the


EXO TERRA PT2495 Monsoon RS400 High Pressure Rainfall Rainforest Humidifier

Thanks
Our son loves his new critter and named him "yoda"

It is a little pricey but I think mist king is your best bet. Lots of people on this forum use it. If you look at our sponsors he is listed there. I think there is a $99 basic package and $180 for a awesome package with everything. Personally I just took the time to make my own. If you search for DIY mister on here you can find some good tips. You just need pond pump, tubing, bucket, digital timer and some spray nozels. Most can be bought from a Home Depot or online. That cost me like $30 to make mine and its great. Those habba misters are rumored to be pretty sucky. You could also go with a simple dripper. Good luck! I bet yoda is a stunner! We wanna see some pics soon!

I'd have to recommend Mist King too. I just bought one and I love it, fairly easy to program. I would recommend the zero drip valve though. I didn't want to spend the additional money and now need to order one. Not to mention Marty is very cool and quick to answer questions.

Thanks! I think I convinced my husband to go with the ultimate kit. We are not to handy to make our own. I will post some pictures soon.
