Thread: Fog Machine Recomendation

Tweet

I'm looking at getting some fog machines to add atmosphere to my graveyard display, which is my entire front yard. I checked the archives and didn't find much useful. So here goes, what do you recommend and why. Thanks in advance.

I'ld recommend Spencers 700W machine with no reservations.

Why: Good quality, my oldest is going on 7 years, comes pre-equipped with a timer remote, and is a lot cheaper than the more fancy machines. (you could get 2 for the price of one of the nicer machines) Ideal time is just after Halloween in the store, they're usually discounted to $20 or less.

I bought the visual effects V-919 this year. Yet to try it out. Comes with a timer, 700 watt and was rated one of the better on some website. Got it on ebay. Good luck. I have been debating this question for quite some time now. Hope I made a smart move. A lot of it also has to do with the juice. Crap juice, crap results. Go with froggys. Hands down the best. Have fun.

How much are you willing to spend? I love my V-950 Superfogger. They run about $300 a pop and they'll cover your yard. Check Coolstuffcheap.com

Just noticed we got another Utahn on board. Welcome Magnusius!

I have a 11-12yr(not sure if its from '98 or '99) old american DJ 700watt that has been good to me! I originally paid around $89 then and proudly call it "old reliable!"

I bought another 400watt american DJ fog machine but I lent it out for a B-day party and it came back with issues...

Money is not an issue. With that said, I don't want to waste it either. I have a fog machine from Spencers but it will only work for a few minutes and nothing. Might be the juice. I will try that. Also, it will not give me the effect I desire, might have to use several machines for that.

The effect I want is of a low lying fog. I know I'll have to chill it. But I want to get a good solid machine that can handle the job.

I have 2 the chauvet 900 and the supper fogger v-950. I like the 900 better than the supper fogger I think it puts out more fog and it was allot cheaper. I need to get dmx one now though. Good luck

I love my VEI V-950 Super Fogger. It will fog out my entire block, has an adjustment for fog output and can be set for continuous mode. I have a Chauvet Hurricane 1250 that I've never been happy with and a half dozen of the $20 400W foggers.

I know Corey Minion was demoing some new high-powered fog machines at Transworld. You may want to contact him at minionsweb.com

Thanks Scatterbrains. Happy to haunt you all. Love this website. All of you are so creative and given me some fantastic ideas.
