Simply remove the built-in filter, unroll a lengh of duct tape about 12 inches long, cut a piece of thick plastic, stick said plastic to duct tape and then the other half ( width wise ) to the white plastic filter,, pop filter back on vicks.... and use plastic as a skirt/reducer to metal dryer exhaust hose.
slice a hole in the base of the vicks, so water can be poured into the tub and keeps the water level high enough for 3 days of operation before refill.

What does agar have to do with a vicks??????
and it took me about 30 minutes to setup..
when i clean it out ( once a week or 2 ) i remvoeall the tape and set it back up... takes about 30 minutes of less ( to remove tape, clean with bleach, rinse, scrub, put it all back together and plug back in. )
agar should keep a few months if stored in the fridge!!

I don't know if anybody cares but Kaz makes the humidifiers for Vicks.

Hey poops, forgive me but I am pretty ignorant to most cool mist setups. Can you elaborate a little for me? Why is the humidifier in a bin? Why do you hook it up to dryer hosing? What do you mean by cut a thick piece of plastic? Do you use the existing output hole on the humidifier? What is it you do with the filter?
Also, how does this system differ from the traditional cool mist hookup like hippie has? Thanks a lot.

Well.. Hippie's system would be just as good. just different.
I is in a bin simply because it create so much humidity that you would end up with a drippy wet fruitnig chamber.
The mist comes out the original output.. comes in thru the back ( thru the filter )
The plastic is just used as a skirt to mate the filter and the pipe (air intake ). You could use duct tape and tape the filter and pipe directly but i wanted to shield the glue on the tape from humid air.
I leave the filter in.. charcoal and fine mesh... and add a ball of pillow filler ( i can't think of the correct name right now.. kinda stoned... :0 , same stuff you use in jar lids... i'll remember tomorrow )\
I use the dryer hose to direct the flow of air to the tent..if you cut the hole in your bin's lid slightly smaller than the hose, if fits snugly with the metal wire in the hose.
the longer the hose.. the less humidity you get... the shorter hose seems to provide more humidity..
there.

nice looking setup.. but not very self suffiecent.. i bet you get alot of standing water in that bin. Would explain why you have to clean it out so much.
This was a short test run almost 8 months ago when it was first set up after moving. It has been slightly changed, but not much. The humidity can expand in the bottle, extra will run back down into the resevoir. Very cheap and requires no maintanence.

If you look closely you can see afoaf's hummer design. The top half is made of a disposable plastic sunny-d juice bottle as a pre-condenser going into the water jug, followed up by super-glued rubber gromets and pre-condenser sealed to hummer cap with liquid nailz, seals like charm everytime. The Radiant Heater has been replaced.
