Warm Steam Vaporizer?

tanias16 Jul 22, 2003 03:10 PM

I am trying to find a good, (and cheap) humidifier to use with our new jacksons. I found this :

And thought it might be good since it is *warm* steam.
Would an ultrasonic be better?
Thanks
Tania

Warm can be too warm! Depending on how close the vaporizer will be to the cage it can overheat it pretty fast as it works by almost boiling the water. The "cool mist" ones will produce about room temp vapor and work better generally.
