Fogger Cloner.
^^^^^
That's the one I have
I've got the NutraMist 5... I suggest, if possible, spend the dough on the complete unit... not the single head... why? Well, the full package brings a couple of engineered goodies... like a small PC fan... with a distribution pipe inside the reservoir... an automatic float valve that keeps the nute level at the needed level for optimum operation... etc.
One interesting note::: I've read over @ OverGrow.com's Edge that many people experience problems with foggers that "heat-up" too much the fog... well, as Zandor said when he first posted about the NutraMist, its fog is cool. Colder than room temperature.

One of the things I liked about foggers, is that they help the plant produce "micro-hairs" on its roots. I think, (again, I THINK, as I'm a newb in this growing business), that if you use another type of hydro system, in addition to the fog, you will prevent the plants from developing those "micro-hairs".
For example, if you have foggy roots... inside a NFT-style rain gutter, when you start flowing the water through the NFT, it will probably break-off the roots' micro-hairs. With a DWC setup, the underwater roots will definitely do without micro-hairs.
The big improvement I'm hoping for is that these micro-hairs will make the plants grow faster, stronger and produce more yields. I'm very eager to see how the experiment goes...
Waiting for more discussion topics,
