Largest respect goes to the makers that show their failures and how they overcame. This build is super helpful

@LeMaleDmale Год назад

Pro tip! When cutting through thin plastic, run drill in reverse! Also, heat guns softened the plastic, which makes it less prone to crack! Great video! Thanks, I'll be making this for my tent

@BryanL420 6 месяцев назад

Just heat the drill bit or anything metal round rite size and melt a hole thru

I picked this up for work. My last one was smaller ru-vid.comUgkxtD9aJ2m6GU-X1IChQxjn9l31K1A7Kpwj and cuter but the motor burned out within a few months. This one's footprint is a tad bigger but it still doesn't eat up a lot of desk space. Its size and shape blends into the background nicely. This has a good size water container so I don't need to refill more than once a week. I use filtered (not distilled) water because cleaning up after our hard water is tough at work. I like that this has several settings. It's also very quiet. (I have a silence naxi in the next cubicle.) It also hasn't left that terrible while powder, so far, that some humidifiers leave. Been using this for a month or so now and am very happy with my purchase.

Top-secret pro tip: if you build a little float for the ultrasonic disc to sit in, you can ensure that the disc is always at the proper depth for maximum mist and you can use a deeper container.

@OakandSpore 4 года назад

Yeah, usually I use a float valve on my bigger humidifiers. This little one I've been running the last few days and I still haven't needed to refill it.

@youngjedi9199 2 года назад

@sailme2day 4 года назад

great mini unit Tom . Can I recommend one addition to your great design ? add a short vertical hose , then add a t fitting. at the 12 o'clock pipe end put a cap over it . The 12 o'clock opening is now your water fill hole , so no need to remove the lid :) the second - 3 o'clock part of the " T" , goes to the fruit chamber. worth a consider. Please keep creating and teaching new growers how to get it done . thanks

@OakandSpore 4 года назад

Good idea! If I were to use this humidifier full time I would probably do that.

@stellabeatsofficial Год назад

I'm trying to picture what you are saying here. You are saying to put a T on top of the bulkhead, correct? This would make 2 openings: 9 oclock and 3. You are saying one side will have an end cap for removal to add water. You would be pouring it in sideways. Is this what you mean? If so, I would just have two bulkheads, one with a cap, and the other is the humidified air.

Pro tip, if you reverse the drill bit when drilling through the plastic and create a pilot groove and then turn it back to rotate clockwise and drill your hole you won't (shouldn't) busy through the plastic :) learned for many monotubs/plant grow bins ;)

Awesome and way easier than messing around with pre-made ultrasonic humidifiers. I use something very similar, except I snagged an IP68 or whatever waterproof fan from the internets for not-much-money, and just sorted through all my old USB chargers etc until I found one that would be suitable. Same thing with the humidifiers, except I use two because my room is located in an awful location and Australia gets hot as manure. Got away with a single one last year in a 4 tier plastic greenhouse (with a big tray of perlite at the bottom) with only a few issues on the hottest days.

thanks for uploading - i had never seen these little fogger modules before but its the very thing. you can also get very tidy little modules for humidity/temperature control complete with sensors. switching AC or DC 12/24v versions. ( about £15 GBP ) im thinking that the DC version could work nicely with a system like this, all running off the same transformer. ( probably safer than the AC one too)
