Another thing that's happened
as a result of heightened interest is that the price of more powerful fog machines has
come down substantially. You can now buy a high-output fog machine that would have cost
five-hundred dollars a few years ago for under a hundred dollars.
We've
spent the last month analyzing the input from our "Consumer Fog Machine Testing", competing several different fog
machines against each other in what we call "The Fog Machine Showdown".
All three Eliminator fog machines tested produced levels of fog as
expected and seemed to have a quicker re-heat
cycle than many of the other consumer level fog machines.
Our pick
for this year's top consumer-level fog machine is the "Eliminator" line of
consumer and semi-professional fog machines. Below are our picks for the best of the best in fog machines for Halloween!

 Timer
Remote Control
Most fog machines
include a cabled manually operated remote
control. When you want the fog machine to
stream fog, you hold down the button. The problem with this type of remote is that
you to operate it
every time you need fog.
The number
one accessory for any fog machine is a Remote
Timer Controller. These have both a timer and volume control that allow
you to set how often you want the fog machine to come on and what volume
you want it to produce.
For example, you
could set the fog machine to come on every two minutes, then produce fog
for ten seconds at a volume of seventy-five percent of its capacity, and
then start over. This type of Remote Control Timer is available from
Halloween Effects.
