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.

After years of research and development, we think we’ve finally made the perfect smoke machine: the MicroFogger 5 Pro! Featuring a completely redesigned layout and new smoke generation technology, this is by far the most reliable (and leak-proof) smoke machine on the market, providing you with limitless use for years to come. The new hot-swappable fluid tank assembly and replaceable battery mean that you can use it all day, with virtually no downtime. As with our previous models, the 5 Pro 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. The 2x larger screen lets you change countless settings such as smoke density, and even configure autonomous operation for hands-free use. As with all of our previous Pro models, the MicroFogger 5 Pro can be remote controlled using the included keyfob from up to 30m away, for easier solo photography. When the battery runs out, simply re-charge it within the MicroFogger using the USB-C cable or replace it with a spare one. 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!

This starter kit includes everything you need to get started. If you want all of the accessories as well, consider the ultimate kit instead.

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, the usb charging port also doubles as a signal input which allows you to trigger the MicroFogger using an Arduino or other micro controller of your choice.

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.

    I have used Version 4 Pro for a couple years and this version 5 Pro is a far superior upgrade — and 4 Pro was already very good. It does not leak fluid and is designed so that it won’t. It seems more powerful than the Version 4 — greater volume of output on the max setting. I have used it to fill a fairly large room with a light haze with about five minutes of 10 seconds on and 2-3 seconds off bursts. It didn’t overheat — seemed fine. I’ve only had it a couple weeks now and haven’t done more than testing but so far so good. Definitely am pleased and based on my prior two years with Vosentech (including very responsive and excellent service) I have no doubt that is will perform very well. Highly recommend it. I work in the film industry and have seen a lot of special effects foggers/hazers large and small. This one definitely fills the portable, versatile and compact niche. Nothing can touch it in this price range or even double that. Highly recommended.

    I work in the film industry and have used Vosentech Microfogger 4 Pro for the past two-plus years for smoke effects where I needed a very localized, controllable effect of smoke. For example, I had a shot where I needed smoke tendrils rising from some burnt rubble. I had two Microfogger 4 Pros tucked behind set elements with silicon tubes running five to six feet from them to the rubble and operated them via wireless remote. The foggers are only about 4 inches tall, so are easy to hide. The foggers worked perfectly, take after take. The fog juice was refilled a couple times. Battery life was adequate for many 8-12 second bursts throughout the shoot day (with a short recharge during a set change on one of the foggers). On another shot, I was able to direct fog (to simulate smoke) coming from an actor’s clothing, again by wireless remote. I was able to rig the microfogger in a heat-shielded pouch and again ran silicon tube inside the clothing. There was no noticeable heat coming from the tubing or fog. The actor was surprised and commented that he sensed no heat. I have used them for localized smoke effects when I didn’t need to use larger fog machines or hazers.
    As to service, I have received excellent, “far beyond the call of duty” service from Vosentech. Even when one of my machines was at the end of its warranty period, Ivan sent me a replacement main board for one of them. He gave me store credit as well. I can’t thank him enough for his care, advice and attention. I have since added a Microfogger Pro 5 to our fog effects tools. I am very pleased with this line. I have used Look Tiny, Mole’s old portable fogger (the converted insecticide fogger, discontinued for some years now). I have used other small devices and found the Vosentech filling a niche for small, portable and versatile devices. It’s the type of machine you can use to walk across the set before rolling and get an instant fog effect, such as a wisp of ground fog or similar. I highly recommend these machines. They probably do more, but these are my experiences. I haven’t yet checked them for a haze effect, but apparently by lessening the volume and adjusting the fan speed, you can achieve a passable haze effect, though localized. Don’t expect to fill a large venue, but you can fill a living room size set easily, or as I did once, an engine room of a WWII ship. Again, I highly recommend them. They work and work well.
    Thanks, Tom A.

    Hello,
    The fog machine is working quite good, but…
    …it’s TOTALLY IMPOSSIBLE to use it in movies.
    I am a french professional property master since years, the fog machine is SOOOO noisy !!
    Even with the fan sets to zero, the machine is really TOO NOISY ! It’s impossible to use it in a movie if you have to record sound.
    but a movie is images… and sound… =(

    If you use the onboard fan, of course, it’s even worst !

    I can give 4 or 5 stars if you want to use it only for photo shoot but, really, if you want to simulate a little smoke source with actors quite close to the fog machine and you want to record the dialogs : it’s really impossible.

    This is my third version of the MicroFogger and it just gets better and better. The 5 Pro produces an incredible, surprising amount of fog, and the ability to control so many aspects is a godsend! I’ve used it in almost a hundred live performances, so far, and it has never failed to do exactly what I need it to do.

    And the personal, rapid response, when I’ve needed assistance is also exceptional. Kudos and thanks for a fantastic product with matching customer service!

    The fog is nice, haze feature is lacking. Any attachments you can send to make more of a haze effect?

    works great! love it!

  13. John G. (verified owner)

    The MicroFogger was easy to operate and created the smoke effect we needed on stage. Vosentech also was very prompt filling the order in the midst of the Christmas holiday. Thanks!

    So far this is so much better than the model 2 that I had and although it slightly leaks a bit, it is much better than previous models.

    • Ivan (store manager)

      Thanks for the feedback! The new fluid tank shouldn’t leak at all, so if you reach out to us we can get a replacement sent over to you as it sounds like yours may be faulty 🙂

  28. Jeff (verified owner)

    Product is working well, it delivers a significant amount of fog.

  29. Antonio (verified owner)

    Amazing device!! I purchased this for photography of products as well as people and it is amazing! Easy to use and will probably be buying another! I’m definitely buying a few accessories and can’t wait for the case.. Don’t be likee, buy the bundle lol

    The microfogger 5 performs as billed: easy to use; lots of smoke; immediate output. The Company provides timely and results-focused responsiveness to questions and concerns. What’s not to like?

  32. Eric A. (verified owner)

    The look and fee is wonderful. Removable battery is big plus. The fluid tank is excellent. I testes shortly after it arrived and it produces a great amount of smoke. The selectable modes make adjusting for a specific effect easy.
