hi guys...im building a new aeroponics chamber...and after reading antherOzzies thread on fogger ponics...i got thinking if a fan was somehow instaled in the chamber to blow (using warm air from grow room)the water/nute droplets around the chamber and maybe break them up a little??..or maybe even supplement water/nutes from the misters with water/nute been blown into the chamber through a fan??
love to get some ideas from you guys and let me know how dumb this idea is!

Talking not a bad idea

some of the foggers ive been looking at have a built in fan humidety & moisture control so in theory you could run this system outside of the root camber and nute tank
(this is my preferance as my current project uses a ozone generator to steralize the rooting camber)

yor idea is definitely on the nose with a little bit of reaserch it should work well

ill gather some of the info on foggers an e-mail you if you want it.

Lightbulb ozzie!

forgot to mention...im thinking of buying a ozone generator as well..are they efective...just thinking cos im already runing a fan, 400watt lamp, and pump..just thinking of power usage...i think i have come up with a way to run/or supplement my power with power from a small solar panel..and a wind powered generator...for under $600
cheers and thanks for your help!
Bong On!

Cool ozone

depending on the type purchased their a good investment
the one i use is directly injected into the nutrient
oxygenating it as well as steralizing it it then goes through the fogger to the root chamber doing its job there
you can find it at http://www.blackmaxozone.com.au retail $459AU
youll need to ring to contact a local distributer

also the fogger im using isnt readily available as its a sample model used by a company to design humidification and propagation cabnets ,but i think there is one left as there not advertised around $240AU delivered

solar power sounds interesting for running the fans and pumps wouldnt the light overload the batteries?
