Just curious how many fog machines everyone use and what watts? Do you run them through chillers and if so how big of an area are you covering and what doe the effect look like for your area you are fogging.
I am looking to expand my cemetery for next season since I am taking this year off. So I want to fog the entire cemetery with chillers.
This is what I currently have. One chiller built from GotFog how to that I used last season. I have one 1500 Watt martin fogger, 3 700 watt foggers, and one 400 watt that I use in my coffins since they don't smoke all that great for land area but work great in the coffin. I am thinking about getting 2 1200 watt foggers and maybe 2 more at least one more 400 watt fogger for another coffin and a cauldron. Is this enough to do make a nice ground cover. What does everyone else do and use?
-Thanks

Thats alot of foggers!
We use two. One 1000w and one 700w both on chillers, but our yard isn't that big.

Mine isn't big ether. I use to do productions for concerts so I have kind of collected things over the years. Do you have any pics of them in action? I would love to see it. I was happy with the one 700 watt through the chiller but it was in one small area and I plan on ground laying the entire yard. So just wanted to get an idea of what to expect.

for our roughly 20' x 20' backyard cemetery we use 2 700 watt foggers with no chillers. we alternate them as best we can and we get some great coverage. not quite constant fog but pretty close to it. it stays fairly dense too. im very happy with the performance i get out of them.

My front yard is roughly that size. I think it is like 25x30. I am sure I will be fine and have plenty of fogger, but you can never have enough...LoL. I like fog everywhere....LoL
Anyone got any pics of them in action?

I used one 400 watt fogger last year to inject fog into a witch's cauldron through a hole in the side to make it look like it was smoking. This year I'm planning to have yard fog, so I'm using two with chillers, since they are both cheap 400 watters. Yeah, I'm a cheapskate.

I have 9 smoke machines. 1 pro unit, 5 cheap ones, 1 that was cheap but is the most amazing output I have ever seen - and 2 "low lying" fog machines that I fill with ice.
Granted, the low lying versions are crap, but they work for a few scenes that are indoor for a little while.

Glad to see I am not the only one that likes fog machines. You are right, those low lying machines are crap. I bought one last year to see if it would save me from making a chiller. Needless to say it didn't so it went back the same day.
My martin machine is a pro unit but I haven't used it in years I think I need to fix it which is why I haven't used it.
Does anyone have any pics or videos of their machines in action though?

We are testing this week and I will see if I can get a video. We have a weird pie shaped lot since we are in a cul de sac / circle. So it is really hard to fog.
