Cool Mist Humidifyers and FAE

I'm in the process of putting together a 100gallon closet setup in a locale where ambient humidity is 70% (60% if it's dry but it usually isn't). When I go to look at cool mist humidifier setups so I can get good FAE none of em tell me how much air they displace It doesn't mention on the box or the product web sight. How do I figure this one out? Additionally will the humidifier get me to the normal casing humidity level? If I'm not mistaken it's 82-92% (an 12% increase) so it should easily do it on it's own.
I already have an ultra sonic humidifier but I need FAE so if anyone has any advice with regards to this feel free I havn't built anything yet my setup is just in pieces.

I can't answer that for you, but I doubt anyone else can either. I have 3 impeller coolmists, all the same model, all from the same store, and none of them move the same amount of air. One seems to blow almost twice as hard as weakest one.

I only rely on fanning. I have cool mist and ultra sonic. I run at 100% all the time.

so even if I can get good humidity with just a cool mist getting the fan to displace between 200 and 300 gallons an hour is a total crap shoot?

That will probably work just fine. I would still fan. If your first time just to rule out it as a problem. Lot's of air only helps.

hmmm this tech you linked to has got me wondering if maybe shelved greenhouse setups are the way to go or not. I mean I already bought the shelf but I've already filled two of my bookshelves so I could always just use it to hold books. Thanks for getting me thinking. But since I'm a newbie at casing I was kinda wanting a system where I could have more different projects going at once. Especially until I've cloned a good mono-culture to inoculate with.

Yeah having that greenhouse will allow you to experiment a little more with grow methods. Tub grows are great though...and good for bulk if thats what your aiming for.
Heres a good link for a setup you could replicate!
