I'm going to make this work even if I need to buy a new humidifier!

From what I can tell there is a float (circular white pumice thing) and it is very sensitive. It has to be at the perfect level and stable (not moving) in order to turn on the nebulizer. The vacuum in the tank keeps the water from continuing to pour out when the water level in the base is high enough to meet the tank.
I don't know much about this sort of thing, but if there was one hole, and you put a filled bucket above where the humidifier was and a hose leading down to the top of humidifier, wouldn't it just keep filling up with water as the level dropped below where the hole in the humidifier tank is?

PS Feel free to just say No, won't work, roll your eyes and move on.
