I know this is old and has been dug up once before. but i'm about to do this. I have two tanks side by side and do you think it will be easy to put the tube in one and then switch it to the other one after a few minutes? And also after a year of making it have you come across any problems? Do you still use it? I'm about to throw my mist bottle away for good and give my arms a break!

I still Use it almost daily..

I move the tube from Tank to tank..nothing permanment..

I still mist also..get a hand pressurized spray unit.

I leave mine on each tank for about 20 - 60 minutes at a time..depends on what I am doing

nice, i just bid on one shaped like a penguin on ebay with a 1g tank. I probably wont win it but it ends in a few days for $15 with free shipping. I'll have to wait and see.

Make sure whatever one you get is plumbable, wyatt. Not all of them are. You don't want to get one and not be able to use it.

This is the one I use

The output is adjustable and there is a button latch that can actually hold the handel down to spray on its own

wait, plumbable? what does that mean? cleanable?

jpstod, that sprayer looks good. I might just look into getting one of those. looks a lot more reliable than the humidifier. and easier to set up. Although i was thinking of doing a two tube one and putting it on a timer. I think i'm getting too complicated though...

plumbable, as is able to be plumbed. Not all of them have a round opening you can stick fittings into. If you can't fit a hose to it, you can't use it this way. Most of the ones they make now have molded slit openings. There is one by Kaz that is plumbable... where did I put that link... I'll have to find it later... break time is ovah!

Ah i gotcha. Ya, the penguin one has a slit on top, i was gonna find a way to attach a hose to it. but I dont think im gonna have to. I doubt ill win the auction. and they retail for $45. so if i got one for $15 that would be a steal. I saw the Kaz one on amazon.com, problem is the cost. I'm just going to have to go to walmart and see what they got in-store. Hopefully they got one like jpstod did for about $30

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Wal-Mart, he says! ::wipes tears from eyes from laughter::

I'm sorry... I've been looking at Wal-mart FOREVER for one that is plumbable. they simply don't carry one, and the majority of the ultrasonics they DO carry are very expensive. You might get lucky on walmart.com and be able to get free site to store shipping, I haven't checked there yet. I hear that Walgreen's carries one.

I'm sorry I laughed at you, but you said walmart like it was just that simple, lol... I think you're going to see just how not simple it is when you start trying to find one that will take a fitting... They used to make them ALL with the circular opening, In fact, I have one, but it is in SC and is very old so it may not work anymore (if my mom hasn't tossed it or lost it in the many moves she has made in the last few years). I might have to ask her to find it and ship it to me...
