It's time for a martha!

I've decided I'm turning my closet into a Martha. I just bought one today and it's too big so I gotta get a smaller one but I wanted to clear up my questions before I go ahead and get it. If you could be so kind... 
1) How do I attach the Ultrasonic Cool Mist? Do I duct tape a tube to it and run the tube through a hole in my Martha?
2) What exactly will the cool mist do..provide humidity and FAE? So I'd still need to mist my casings then, right?
3) Is there a certain diameter tubing I should use for this connection; aquarium tube be too thin? If so what's best?
4) If I have my casings on shelves inside, I leave them uncovered, correct...that's the whole point of the Martha?
5) Will each casing receive adequate lighting if placed on shelf after shelf? (ex: If my light is at the top of my closet, will the casings on the bottom shelf be able to receive light with all the other casing-filled shelves on top?
6) How cold does the cool-mist make the inside of the Martha?
7) Please let me know if I have the right idea here. This seems like the simplest and most efficient way to do multiple casings and I'd like to give it a go.
Thanks in advance...I'd like to get this up and running tomorrow on my day off so any help you guys can give me would be awesome. Peace!

scroll down, he explains about the fittings and connections you need with the martha.
Cool mist provides FAE and humidity, keep an eye on your casing layes and mist when needed.

That looks pretty complicated though. I have no experience with building anything like this. He says I can find that in the electrical dept.;does he mean the fitting or the hose? I guess I'll go to Sears hardware and see what I can come up with.

Might have better luck at a lowes or home depot. Or even your 'local' hardware store. My town's locally owned hardware store owns! They have twice as much weird shit in half as much space as Home Depot.
Grab a phonebook and look under 'hardware'.

My closet is actually pretty small. It's a little over 2 feet wide and after the door frame its only about a foot and a half deep. Height isn't really an issue though. Can anyone tell me if there's a smaller version called something else? Like does walmart sell smaller ones? Or lowes? What would I look it up as?

5/8in garden hose for the ultrasonic 1" for the coolmist, just use a red hot knife to port a hole in the top the ultrasonic tube directly above the coolmist to diffuse and push it.
