FAE and humidity

I realize this is something already discussed in other threads. I have read quite a bit and googled a lot as well to find my information. I guess the trouble is that there is so much information I can't find enough specific to my question.
I have 2 atomizers and a multitude of computer fans I thought might make a good micro climate on a timer. I also have 2 cool mist humidifiers that haven't been used for 10 years. I have seen some innovative FC's that have been automated by humidifiers but not much mention of the atomizer being used in conjunction with a centrifugal blower fan for CO2 evacuation (negative pressure inside the FC), and a similar one with a HEPA filtration to slow down the air current as well as filtrate the air (positive pressure outside the FC).
Holy fack, was that a run-on sentence?
I understand the importance of overdoing it, but the convenience of automation would make it nice to "leave the kids with the babysitter" when it's time to go camping and such... I would think a system could be set up with timers to regulate all equipment at pertinent intervals. Anyone out there able to say yay or nay, or simply point in the right direction?

Nay all the way.
Even "automated" green houses need tending to from time to time.
Just build a monotub as big or small as your need it and pack it with cakes or crumble and case your cake.

Nay... The automated chambers people have been coming up with are notoriously hard to dial in, and usually just result in a waaaaay oversaturated substrate.

This is true. But if you can manage to dial it in 100% properly it is well worth it from what I have seen.

The two most automated maintenance free FCs there are are the SGFC and the monotub.
I've yet to see an automated setup more automatic than those two passive designs. Even ones that are "dialed in"

Yep. I gave up on automation years ago cause I was sick of babysitting it. Filling reservoirs, checking that it's still dialed in when my AC or furnace start kicking in regularly, pain in the ass. Make a mono and forget it for a few weeks.

Man I had a job offer this week for Fairbanks, Alaska.
Uh fuck no. It's too cold to barely function there. I don't see how some of you canucks do it unless you're in the deep canadian south. Even then.

Lol I gotta drive a long fucking time to get to the boarder. It's damn cold but lately it's been getting pretty warm. I was working outside in January this winter in just a hoodie. Was like 25F which is pretty sweet.
