Haze

Atmosphere

The MicroFogger 5 Lite has 3 power settings. When set to low, it will create a light haze which is great for simulating steam effects

Smoke

Special effects

When set to full power, the MicroFogger really pushes out some serious volume! It’ll fill up an average living room in 1-2 minutes, and is perfect for any special effects that require strong bursts of smoke.

Fog

Tabletop photography

The liquid fog attachment can create a delicate layer of fog that flows around objects like a liquid. Perfect for tabletop photography.

The MicroFogger 5 Lite is the perfect entry-level smoke machine for anything from creating haze on set, to adding special effects to props to visualizing airflow patterns. The new hot-swappable fluid tank design and replaceable battery mean that you can use it all day, with virtually no downtime. As with our previous models, it generates enough smoke to fill an average living room with a safe, odorless smoke in about 1-2 minutes, and doesn’t need any heat up time unlike traditional devices. Since it is completely battery-powered and wirelessly controlled via the optional remote, you can position it virtually anywhere on set! When the battery runs out, simply re-charge it within the MicroFogger using the USB-C cable or replace it with a spare one, which can be charged in our charging dock (sold separately). As expected, we’ve kept the beloved pocket-sized form factor of the device so there’s never a situation where it’s too big to take with you!

FAQ

Can the MicroFogger trigger smoke alarms?
Yes, if enough smoke is produced then ionization and photoelectric smoke alarms will be activated. Traditional heat-activated smoke alarms and sprinklers won’t be affected

Is it possible to change the smoke color?
Unfortunately not. The MicroFogger produces smoke through the evaporation of a fog liquid so it can only be white, adding a dye to the liquid will not change this. The only way to simulate colored smoke using the MicroFogger would be to light up the white smoke using some external lights.

Can I breathe in the smoke?
During proper operation, the fog produced is considered to be non-toxic but we do not recommend breathing it in anyway. The smoke can only become toxic if the safety precautions regarding the replacement of worn-out heating coils are not followed (this information will be published in the instruction manual).

What is the fog liquid made out of?
Our fog liquid consists of a high purity vegetable glycerin and propylene glycol mixture. These are commonly-available chemicals and may be found in local vape shops as base liquids for electronic cigarettes.

Can I use liquids from other smoke machines?
Liquids from other fog machines are usually far less viscous than our composition so if used in the MicroFogger, they are unlikely to produce any smoke. We can only guarantee the safety and performance of the fog liquid that we sell so if you decide to experiment with other compositions, this would at your own risk.

How long does the smoke linger in the air?
Depending on the atmospheric conditions, the smoke can remain in the air for up to an hour after being released. The main factor affecting this is whether or not there is any air movement, drafts or wind will greatly accelerate the smoke dispersion.

Are MicroFogger 5 heating coils cross-compatible with earlier models?
The MicroFogger uses the same heating coils as the MicroFogger 4 Pro, but with the lower section removed. If you have MicroFogger 4 heating coils, they will work in this device.

Can I control the MicroFogger 5 via a wired remote?
Yes, but this is only available on the PRO model, the LITE version does not have this feature.

Does the MicroFogger 5 get hot during use?
During extended continuous use at full power, the front section that contains the fluid tank can get very hot, up to around 90C. This area is protected by the safety cover, which will prevent you from accidentally touching the hot metal parts. Under normal use, the MicroFogger will only get slightly warm. A temperature readout is displayed on the screen for your convenience.

What are the exact exterior dimensions of the device?
We have an exterior model mockup of the MicroFogger 5 Pro available, that you can download by clicking here. This should make designing around it and building it into props a lot easier.

    Very happy! Plumbed it into the base of a Halloween prop and used a long piece of Scotchbrite pad as a diffuser. Made nice thick rolling smoke across the prop!! Perfect!!

    Easy to use and provides good smoke visualization.
