i believe a cool mist WOULD be overkill for the tubs you described, unless you had it on a timer. but its much better to have a martha with a coolmist running 24/7

If you are set on keeping the rubbermades, it is definitely doable. Just like itsbreck said, however, you may have to put it on a timer and adjust the timing based on your humidity levels.

A lot of it depends on what you will be growing. Cased substrates in a terrarium usually need no extra humidification, as evaporation from the casing layer supplies all that is needed. Cakes in a terrarium do very well with perlite humidification.
In my opinion, save the humidifiers for mini-greenhouses, and have them on a timer or humidistat. RR
