New additions to the misting system!!

[gfisher2002]

For those of you that caught my description in a previous thread of my homemade rain system, I have added some modifications.
The system worked but the resevoir that holds the water supply cooled off after an hour or so. And Lucy loves a hot shower, so...
I mounted an aquarium heater I had around, inside the resevoir. Now it's set to keep the water a blistering 120 deg. (thats ferenhiet by the way lol).
Now what if I forget to top it up and it runs dry? No problem. I bought a float switch from Co-op(replacement part for a water softener) for $6.99. I installed it at the bottom of the tank 3 inches from the bottom.(Drill a hole and it has 2 O-rings to seal it on so the wires are outside) Then I wired the heater before the timer on the Powerhead. Then wired the float switch to the pump/heater power chord. So if it gets too low, it shuts off power to the pump and heater. No heater burning out, and no powerhead running dry.
Next project is to plumb a 1/4 inch water line to a feed on the resevoir with another float to automaticly top it up. Ohh and about 5 more chameleons and enclosures to make all the work worth it. lol.
She is definately worth it by herself.
