Caution: Please read this manual carefully before operating
Damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty

A high-efficiency 1500W haze machine capable of producing 20,000 cu.ft per minute of haze to rapidly fill larger venues. The haze effect can then be highlighted with an array of colours from the 9 bright LED’s housed in the front of the unit. The haze and light effects are easily controlled using either the included keyfob-style RF wireless remote or by 6-channel DMX connection. The 2.3 litre fluid bottle can be removed for easy refilling and there is a slot window to indicate the current fluid level.

  • 1500W haze vaporizer with around 20,000 cu. ft/min output
  • Nine powerful 3W LEDs add a bright colorful light show to the haze effect
  • 433Mhz keyfob-style RF wireless remote
  • 6-Channel DMX connections
  • Removable 2.3 litre fluid tank
