Adding humidity from outside tent using active intake and humidifier in a storage tote w/passive intake

Hi, have a question for anyone who may have tried what i'm thinking of trying. Mainly because i'm not sure it will work. Ok, here goes. I have my tent in a lung room that isn't insulated perfectly. Not that it is a major problem, but the lung room is big enough that running a humidifier in the lung room as opposed to the tent wouldn't work very well, so i do have a humidifier in the tent. I am in early flower, and only need to add a bit of humidity, buy my humidifier on its lowest setting is still adding a bit too much (up around 60-65%rh), even while running a 4" AC infinity inline fan on intake, through a filter box, and a 6" AC Infinity inline fan exhausting to the outdoors at a 3 setting to get my canopy temp at or around 78°F. If i shut the humidifier in my tent off altogether, my humidity can plunge into the mid to low 40%rh range, and while i may desire that level of humidity later on in flower, i'd like to keep it to mid 50%rh for now. I am wondering if anyone has used a small to medium sized storage tote, with a small humidifier in it, with a passive screened intake on it, and output from the tote to the active intake to their tent. Hoping someone can say from experience or just knowledge of thermodynamics if this is a stupid idea, or a brilliant solution to up the humidity in my tent a small amount, smaller than the lowest setting on the humidifier presently in the tent.
 
Normally yes, but my sensor or sensor output is fubarred, and can only run my AC Infinity Cloudforge at 25%:50%:75% or 100% using Vapor Mode as without the sensor working properly, Auto Mode won't work for me (display just flashes). I bought it third party, and not sure i can get any repair or warranty, so am just running it this way for now. May in future purchase Controller 69 Pro, or 69 Pro+, (cant afford atm) which i can then control the Cloudforge through it. At present, I only have Controller 67, which will only control two fans (intake and exhaust).
