Recommendations on a controller

[rgentry83]

Hey everyone! New to the community but I’m interested in getting a controller for temp and misting regulation, any recommendations? Thanks!

Sounds like maybe a HerpStat is what you’re looking for. https://spyderrobotics.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=1

Thanks! It looks like this is mainly a temp controller with an optional humidity probe, but now way to control misting/fog with the controller unless I’m missing something in the description

Mistking has a pretty good automatic misting system!

Do you wanna spend 500 or 100? That's the real question.

You can spend 500 between a herpstat and mistking

OR

You can spend 100 and buy the unit's linked below + any smart outlet to turn on/off the light at your set times. Everyone's gonna have an opinion; depends on you, but I've had very good success with the $100 route. 1.5yrs and going strong.
