I believe that J. C. Whitney still sells them.  This is second-hand, but
I was talking to the mechanic/owner where I have my Jeep serviced.  He
said that it is hooked into a vacuum line (PCV?) and the vacuum is used
to draw in and atomize some water.  I'm not sure what triggers the
controller.

If I was going to homebrew, I would use a windshield washer pump and
resovoir.
