Curing room shopping list

I am looking to put together a shopping list for a curing room. I have a few ideas, but don't know what I'm doing overall. Little to no practical experience here. I'll appreciate everyone that has experiences with curing that have time to help me out here. Based on what I have seen (jungle boys video) and read (RIU) I think I'm aiming for 58-60C and 60-62%RH. I have a lung-room/air-intake-room I could improve on but it's not super stable at the moment, more a first pass at heating/cooling.


I may be overbuying a bit but the climate here is all over the place it has all the extremes

SHOPPING LIST:
Panda film, gorilla tape and 2x4's, to make a mostly sealed room within a room in a house. 10x10, maybe bigger, not exactly sure what size i want.

Ink-bird humidity controller running a 90pint(?) dehumidifier and pond foggers in auto top off bucket with fan for humidity. (better options?)

Dedicated Digital AC Unit (in-room exhaust tube style?)

Heater - (not sure what type is best?)
-I have a couple digital heat controllers laying around if I need to add it to the heater

Other stuff: Circulation fans, exhaust fan, carbon filter, hanging system (not sure what would work well and be cheap, looking at clothes hangers, conduit, and 2x4's?), ecowitt temp/RH monitoring. (missing anything?)

Everything except the AC is lined up, probably just going to buy a small cheap window unit and tie it to an Inkbird controller if that's cheaper than getting a digital one. I don't know much about AC units, anybody have advice on getting one to use for curing?
 
After mostly getting a cure room dialed in I've started looking at this sort of plan with an ecowitt sensor or sensors to monitor the buckets:
I have most of the parts to do it already just sitting around...

I'll still use the room to test it out maybe use cardboard boxes inside the cure room to slow drying but I'm thinking like I will use curing buckets for at least some of the harvest for the entire cure. Planning to test both and see what I like best. There is definitely the possibility that I end up using buckets only to cure. Anybody with any suggestions feel free to toss them out there I'm just part way through learning this stuff.

Edit: Worst thing that happens is my cure room turns into quite a nice dry room and I cure elsewhere/wise.
