Title: Best bang for the buck dmx fog machine? I need some input!
Post by: bruce gering on July 01, 2011, 12:47:51 PM
I prefer the "fazer" style of fogger that gives you a finer dispersion of fog. I have looked at an Irradiant ZF-1500 fogger that seems to be about what I'm looking for. I would like to spend about $500 tops for this. Any recommendations?

C'mon guys, there has to be at least someone out there who has a suggestion. Anyone?

I had a Chauvet Arena 2 hazer for a while.  When it worked it worked well...

I have 2 irradiant vertical foggers  DMX with wifi remote as well.  Fogger not hazer. 
I got mine for $130 each.
It has been in use for almost 3 yrs with not problems ( 2 to 3 times a month ).   
I would stay away from the budget  oil based hazer by American Dj  ( $480 )  ( and others that slap there name on it )

save your pennys and go for the martin jem hazer or antari 
( I have 2 antari 3000 foggers which i have had for a long long time )

Bruce... Depends how much Fog you need the 1200 size is usually enough for most people

We have and use the CITC Hazemax, a bit on the high end, but the haze/fog is very fine and hangs a long time, and is water based. http://www.citcfx.com/product_haze-max.php (http://www.citcfx.com/product_haze-max.php)
If you want more info give me a call.
