Most modern shows and discos use various special effects for their events. The more such effects, the better and more spectacular the event takes place, and at the same time it gathers a lot of people. In modern show business, strobe lights, light music, lasers, pyrotechnic effects and smoke are used. One of the most spectacular and yet inexpensive effects is heavy smoke, which requires a special smoke generator to create.
Such a device uses a special liquid that, when heated, emits a large amount of smoke-free harmless to health, spreading over the entire area of a disco or stage. Typically, such a liquid is sold in specialized stores, but many creators of special effects prefer not to splurge on expensive supplies and make it themselves. A mixture of glycerol and distilled water is poured into a regular smoke generator, while glycerin is the main component, and water serves only as a diluent.
Most owners of discos prefer to make smoke generators on their own. To do this, use a conventional iron, in the thermal plate of which a liquid chute is milled and hermetically closed with a plate, and a small pump is used to supply liquid under pressure. Yes, it is possible to make a smoke generator with your own hands, but, given the cost of all the necessary elements and the difficulties of the process, it will cost quite expensive. It should be noted that it is quite difficult to organize the safety of such a device and to carry out precise control of heating.
At present, it is possible to purchase a heavy smoke generator at a reasonable price on the Internet. At the same time, if you compare its price with those parts and work that are necessary for independent manufacture, it will turn out even cheaper. It is also worth considering that the magazine device is very reliable and controls the level of heating well. It can be used for professional purposes, and several types of consumables can use such a smoke generator.
In addition to conventional devices running on glycerin, quite often you can find smoke machines that use "dry" ice and ordinary water. This produces a rather dense and heavy smoke, and such devices are cheaper than those that use glycerin.
When choosing a smoke generator, you should pay attention to the volume consumed. Depends on it the duration of the installation without refueling. It is also worth specifying the area of the device’s smoke coverage and the power of the heating element. Some smoke generators are equipped with optional accessories or special devices. They allow you to produce additional effects with smoke in the form of circular swirls, jets, and can even give it a certain color using its own strobe or light filter. A high-quality and professional heavy smoke generator will create a suitable atmosphere at a disco or show. It will attract additional visitors and become an indispensable device for creating the image of the institution.
