Can this be used as a humidifier as well?

I would not use it as a humidifier. It emits a visible mist of the oil/water mixture surrounding the device that carries throughout my home (nice oil smell wise) but not necessarily the way a humidifier distributes just moist air. An actual humidifier would be better if that's what your looking for.

Yes it can. With the misting turned all the off it's only blowing air, however, it wasn't designed to push a lot of it. So it depends on how much you need. I wouldn't use it just for blowing air. The misting function more than makes up for it.

It's not as strong as a humidifier but works in a similar fashion. I have both.

Possibly, but I don't know about the output. This "fogs" more than a standard humidifier.

Although I know it can be put in a diffuser, even a cotton ball & put in your AV/heat vent to purify air, I'm not sure about putting it in a humidifier.

I don't have answer for this question. But I should let you know that this one was broken within two months. Then I had to buy another humidifier.

Don't know. You might check with the humidifier manufacture for restrictions, or if it would void the warranty or damage it.

yes. you only want humidifier on when fan is funning. you will need a 12 v transformer.

No, can't be used in any ultrasonic humidifier, only evaporative type or those with a filter.

Unfortunately I don't know. I have never used essential oils and don't know how difficult (if at all) they are to humidify. It's a great humidifier on it's own though. If oils like that are typically okay to put into humidifiers then I would guess it's okay.

I doubt it would work well or be good for the humidifier. Water flows from the tank down underneath, where it bubbles and spits and makes water vapor, which rises up the tube in the middle.

I use mine in a large open room and it works well as a diffuser. As a humidifier, I would recommend a smaller room.

I would not use it as a humidifier. While it does put a small amount of water into the air, the real purpose is to diffuse essential oils. We live in Utah (a high mountain desert) and in the winter use a humidifier as well as our diffuser. If your intent is to add moisture to the air, I would get a humidifier. However, some people will use the humidifier and place Vicks in the reservoir to help with breathing. If that's your intent, then this diffuser and essential oils will work much, much, much better.

Sorry but is will not control a humidifier. It will heating (gas, oil or electric), cooling (multi stage), even a water heater, and can display inside / outside temperatures.

Yes it will be big enough to humidify your room, but as we are all finding you won't be able to set the amount of water that you can on others. You can choose how strong the fan goes and you can even set that you don't want the unit running all night, just to the amount that is apparently pre-set in the unit which is about 50-55.

No. Definitely not. If you're wanting something that adds a measurable amount of moisture to the air, get an actual humidifier. This diffuser is only about 6 inches tall, and outputs less than 1 cup of water over about 6-8 hours. I use it for aromatherapy and it sits on my desk at work. It's that small.
