I need a smoke/haze machine

ive just found the magnum to be better than the zr22 - used to have one of each in our venue before we upgraded to haze machines. slightly better throw out the machine, and has a slightly larger heat block and element in, so can blat out smoke harder if needed, and the kinetic energy and element can keep up for ages.

 

i must say you cant beat the zr22's reliability however, better build and higher quality components. Had both the machines said on the workbench after they got decommisioned for a nosey (as i do with all equipment to make the nights pass faster). The magnum eventually fried its circuit board, so the venue decided to just get a nice hazer, and scrap the magnum. I nicked it, and transferred the internals to my crap chinese thing and rewired the circuitry.

 

seconded on the fan, the crome industrial ones with tilt stands are especially usefull and cheap on ebay. all the touring companies turn up with them. If you want to be posh, you can get a nice little DMX switchpack and remotely switch it, or depending on the motor type use a dimming pack and control it (unlikely as most will have small DC motors).

 

haha! good job speakerplans isn't easily searchable on google!
