Looks like that is on MAX output. Can you turn it down and run it a Min output? I would like to see how it looks when not on full blast. Can it run continuously? Or must it cycle on and off?

[cybertoyz]

Yes that was on Maximum.
Click on the link to see it on Low output and in continuous mode. If you let the unit warm up for about 10 minutes it will run without cycling on/off


I also switched to Froggy's Beamsplitter Haze Fluid. Vastly improved the effect when using lasers. My laser scanner is being upgraded at the moment so I could not show you.

I hope this is what you were looking for.

Thank you!

I use the froggy beamsplitter in a Chauvet Hazer2. Actually works really well and has good hang time.

That looks like a good little hazer for the money.

[cybertoyz]

For the money... I don't think you can beat it.

Nice staircase, it has a certain industrial aesthetic.

Yea.. water based hazers are basically fog machines with a constant output.

In the first video it looks like cheap fog fluid. Thats why i asked for a second video on less output. I bet with the froggy fluid even on high that it would not look like the first video. Its like the HIGH output is a little too high for the heater to keep up with. Just turn it down a little and it probably works fine.

And at ~200 bucks USD delivered its a pretty good deal.

I agree.

Totally untrue.

There's a big difference in particle size between hazers and fog machines.

The Unique is a water based hazer and yet you have can have beams illuminated in a room which looks totally clear even with the lights on. Try doing that with a fog machine!

The Jungle Haze looks like fazer to me, a fog machine with continuous output.

I hear ya. But this thing is only 157 usd dollars. Unique 2.1 ~1700-1800 usd. For a home user this thing is a good deal. PLus good fluid goes a long way towards particle size also. That first video he said was cheap fog fluid.

Maybe he will post a full throttle or 3/4 throttle video with the froggy fluid for comparision to the first video.
