Atomix is a knockoff, do not cry for them, the droplet range on their machine was wrong anyway, you could achieve the same droplet sizes with ultrasonic foggers.I saw it: Mike posted it last month or so- it was just another wrong HPA unit... I'm afraid they'll never get it right comercially save Atomix which in turn filed bankruptcy....
Aeroponics is droplets 5-50 micron's as stated by NASA in research with the NIS and Richard Stoner, it does not matter what method you use to achieve the droplet range.
Richard Stoner and his companies are the name in commercial aeroponics, the only GENUINE name I can find. Everything else is using droplets out of the correct range and therefore are frauds.
AgriHouse and Stoner who made the first commercial aeroponics unit based on scientific method that was developed by other people long before he came along, successfully packaged it into one unit with ease of use for those same said scientists. The Genesis machine, it's on their website, with feature details, the newest generation of the Genesis machine is also there with its updated modernized features. If you all insist on reinventing the wheel then enjoy wasting your time arguing about something that is already defined by the true creators.
If you would like Aeroponics to become a reality for the majority of people, I would say it's far better for us to make a concerted effort to source components to replicate these already existing perfected systems at a hobbyists price point. Below I've put a list of features on their top of the line unit I jotted down, here's a link to the page with the comparison
Genesis V L-1
26 Jets
Lateral Spray Jet Configuration
Accumulator
Hydro-Controller
Digital Timer
Effluent Return
Stand
Reservoir
Reservoir Filtration
Growth Supports
Expandable
Hi-psi Pump (80-100)
Reservoir Frame
Effluent Filtration
Thermo-Sensor Subsystem
Fail-Safe Sensor Subsytem
Auto-refill Sensor Subsystem
Pre-filter Subsystem
R/O Filtration Subsystem
Auto-refill Solenoid Subsystem
Reservoir Overflow Protection
Effluent Bio-Filtration Subsystem
Now reinventing the wheel is pointless but we have a target list of features that can be sourced one by one and eliminated, and all this mystery around this topic can DIE FOREVER.
