Can a 12v windshield wiper pump be run from a wall wart? I am putting

If all you need is a mist for a terrarium, then a windshield washer motor
is probably overkill - you don't need anywheres near that much of a flow
rate. I'd check aquarium filter pumps, and that sort of thing. The fun
part of the project is going to be finding nozzles, and getting them
hooked up. :-)

Or, you could go totally goofy, and get hand sprayers and arrange a little
motor and cam to press the trigger a few times. ;-)

Good Luck!
