I would recommend either a rainmaker, or pro mist system.
They cost more, but the pumps are high quality and can run dry.
I've had a pro mist for over a year and haven't had any problems
with it.
If you run out of water with the mr. moisture the pump will burn out,.. it only takes one time to forget to refil it and you're hosed. They do make a mr. moisture pro that can run dry, but it's more expensive than the rainmaker or pro mist.

Here you go, you might be able to find them cheaper
somewhere else, I'm not sure.

I have been using the pm-70 for a month or 2 and i am using a 5 gallon bucket for water and have ran it dry a couple of times
I am glad the pump can run dry
I couldnt be more happier

i just bought a used one and its working great for me (so much better than hand misting). ive never had anything else so i cant compare it, but i just check it when i feed and fill it up if its runnin low.

Ya I have one too, and yes it's a pain to remember to fill it up, so I added a 5 gal. bucket to maine. depending on how long it runs, and for have many intervals a day depends a lot on frequency of filling. It used a very small amount of water for each minute of spraying. The additional heads are expensive though, I think I got mine thru rainmaker, but not guarantee it, just check all prices before buying.
