I am not sure what that is supposed to mean. But I assume he don't think it works. I will put another video in the original post of it running and how everything is hooked together.

That's really pretty interesting, never thought of utilizing a pressure washer. I hope it's not close to a bedroom, that noise every 10 minutes would be horrible! Is the pressure washer too high wattage to plug into your humidity controller?

LOL I was just working on this. I am going to build a sound reducing box for the pressure washer. It is right under my bedroom.
The pressure washer takes 11.5 amps at least the one I got. The Humidity controller is rated at 10 amps. So I have an outlet connected to a 15 amp relay so the only amperage going through the humidity controller is what the relay uses which is almost none. I looked up the 15 amp non latching relay I wanted on...

and then found it on ebay or amazon for 1/2 price
I discus using the relay in the second video.

I have only been Running the room for about 4 days plus I ran it for a day empty. I was afraid of putting bags in there before testing it. So a total of 5 days. I am interested in seeing how long the pressure washer holds up. But that's why I bought the 4 year plan to cover it if it breaks. Then their are other options to get it replaced for free that I won't go into here. But if you use your imagination I am sure you can figure it out.

She is holding up awesomely. Easily the best thing I have ever done. I would do it again in a heartbeat!!
Especially since someone Wrote up a tek on how to do it. Remind me to thank that man. He is awesome. LOL
I don't think a lot of people are interested in this. Barely any response.

Yeah, I'll be honest. I skimmed it the first time with it being so thick. Then I saw your post about how people weren't interested and you do have videos of it. I watched the video, then decided I had to really read through this.
It's awesome. I book marked it for future use. I'm sure people will come around over time.. it's aimed more at the commercial grower so it could take some time but really man, good job for taking the time and money to put something like this together, especially for the price.

Thanks man now I don't feel stupid for posting it in the 1st place. I might have deleted it if you didn't comment. I was thinking about it.

As far as how many times I run it? I don't know. It runs from a willhi humidity controller. The controller is set to turn on at 90% humidity and go off at 93% humidity after it turns off the humidity continues to rise to 97% humidity.
It runs for 10 to 15 seconds every 12 minutes. I think this could be reduced with more misters. But I don't want bags getting wet or puddles in the floor so I will keep it this way. Anyway I done the math which you might want to recheck. But what I come up with is it runs for 30 minutes a day.
I went to a kw calculator and from my understanding it draws 1.38 kw. I think I pay .08 cents a kwh. from my calculations which need to be checked. I come up with 11 cents a day. If someone finds my calculations to be wrong please let me know. It may be half that because it only runs for 1/2 hour. OK I am officially confused. Could someone give us the correct answer.
This a good question as well as an important one. Good Job mindblowing for asking the question! I never even thought about it.

you're a madman! i'm pretty appreciative i've seen your post too man, i'm pretty lazy for the electrical work (i think i'd work around it by using an electric timer kicking in and out frequently) but am super keen to try one of these badboys on for size soon. as you saw on the other thread i've been using the mister bucket (the bucket/fan/mister was $90AUD total) but i've seen a distinct decline in efficacy from the mister and want a better solution. pretty sure i'll be able to get the parts cheaps from aliexpress or wish. thanks again
edit: i checked aliexpress, they have some cheapish looking systems but i reckon they'd break quick, i'm pretty curious to see what you think of this one https://www.aliexpress.com/item/S083-ENTENCO-12m-40feet-Misting-Cooling-System-With-12V-60W-Micro-High-Pressure-Self-Priming-Diaphragm/32910612787.html?spm=2114.search0104.3.31.527d3357OcA5gc&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_5_10065_10068_10130_318_10547_319_10548_5727315_10696_450_10084_10083_10618_452_535_534_10307_533_532_10131_10132_10133_204_5727215_10059_10884_10887_100031_320_10103_448_449,searchweb201603_60,ppcSwitch_0&algo_expid=e42b8c1a-b8a6-450b-a547-2c5748a47aa4-4&algo_pvid=e42b8c1a-b8a6-450b-a547-2c5748a47aa4
