    Does anybody know if a mini or micro fogger has ever been made? I have a charcoal grill that I want to use as a prop this year to "BBQ" some things and want to give the illusion of steamy smoke rising from the coals.

    I know I could use a regular size fog machine but it would put out way to much fog for my likeing as were going to use it durring our Halloween party. Some folks will be milling around it I'm sure and some would undoubtedly gripe about to much fog...party poopers.

    HELP!, Marc V.

    Try Dry ice! no cords or trip hazards to deal with and very simple to use! Some warm water and a chunk of it goes a long way if no real wind is present.
    A Halloween prop is a terrible thing to waste..

    It's a mini led fogger. You plug it in and put it in a bowl of water.

    Actually, if it's anything like mine, they usually have red AND blue lights that alternate back and forth. So in the end it changes back and forth from red to purple to blue and so on. Be aware, however, if you're using it outdoors, that just like the dry ice method, the effect is greatly diminished if there is a strong wind. If indoors, you should have no problems, though you may need to take precautions on or near wood floors/furniture. Once the mist condenses, it goes from a gaseous form back to a liquid, and on tile, could be slippery....

    I'm at that awkward stage in life... Somewhere between 'Annoying Fanboy' ...and 'Dirty Old Man'...

    I did a search, and this was the most relevant post I'd found, but it seemed like there never was a slam dunk solution. I'm looking for a similar small smoke machine, but for putting inside of a small cannon, instead. Even the 'mini foggers' (400W) are way too big for my purposes.

    Has anyone seen anything like ravenworks was looking for? What did you end up using, ravenworks?

    The best I've been able to find, so far are the Wizard Stick, or the now-discontinued Skull Fogger.

    Any new ideas? Thanks!

    I remember seeing an mini electronic smoke generator at a magic shop, was about the size of a deck of cards. and less than $100.
    Not sure what your budget is, but it seems like the smaller something is, the more it costs! IDK. I did find a source. PM me if interested.

    Have you looked into e-cigarettes? I know that probably sounds strange, but e-cigarettes are basically mini fog machines, with the e-cig fluid being mostly glycols and water (fog fluid). Just an idea.

    That "wizard stick" that Hooked on Scares posted is pretty cool! Might have to buy me one of those!
