Don’t true misters require a high pressure pump?

Most folks just use the cheap irrigation sprayers that run off a drip line.

You may be on your own w this project.
I’ve only seen one other TRUE high pressure system and that was years ago.

Ive contemplated rigging up multiple electric pressure washers (free or cheap), one per large grow container, and building sprayer manifold lines/loops (that plug in right where the jet nozzles normally do).

I would also like to know what misters would work best with a setup like this.

Hi chipleader. I recently tested a lot of nozzles for a project. The best nozzles I found are these: https://www.ikeuchi.us/eng/products/spray/1ryutai/202
I tested them vs many chinese brands including direct impingement from china and bete (some were good but not nearly as good as the ikeuchi). The smallest one (smallest orifice) is the one I use with my pump (~340 psi but very low volume). It has a very consistent droplet output in terms of the pattern (some are very asymmetrical as you likely know) and the droplet consistency is excellent. The nozzles are ceramic.
