Adam-

I use the Rainmaker Jr. You can get the same kit from the manufactures website www.cloudtops.com/misting_systems.htm a little cheaper, I bought the kit with out the timer saved $40 and bought a timer from homedepot for only $20. The timer is the same used in the mister moister system. The better points of the Rainmaker is the water reservoir is double in size, the misting nozzle assembly is better and the pump is stronger, and the overall set up is better (via water line). Don't get me wrong both are good, a little more gets you a lot. I also have mine setup on a RO/DI filter with a float switch and solenoid valve, this allows for automatic refills, makes thing SO much easier. They will provide a very fine mist. Hope this helps!
