I bought a $300 'smart' plant mister for the shop...

It was supposed to keep the humidity perfect for the display cooler flowers, but the sensor broke after two weeks. Now I just use a regular spray bottle and check things myself... anyone have a simpler gadget that actually lasts?

My old greenhouse had a cheap analog humidistat wired to a basic humidifier. That thing ran for eight years without a single issue. Sometimes the old school tech is just more reliable because there's less to break. I get why the smart stuff is tempting, but a simple mechanical switch and a daily walk-through seems to beat a fragile sensor.

Sounds like my smart home's more fragile than that humidistat.
