Hurricane 1600 Compact High-Output Fog Machine w/Timer Remote & Automatic Shut-Off, BLACK

These are the best in the business! Serious, continuous fog. I have two of these outdoors in my Halloween Haunt and they are worth every penny.

Did not work out of package 👎 Update: Amazon sent out a new one after I contacted them. Second unit worked great!! Tried using local fog juice and it worked ok but when I threw in Foggy fogs bog juice it was freaking awesome!!! The two combined worked perfect. Use high quality juice and you won’t regret it!!

Fog/smoke machines are intricate pieces of equipment. Treat them with respect. I have used several machines over the last twenty years costing in the neighborhood of thirty to forty bucks. I went for this model for all it's features and due to my using other Chauvet DJ equipment and being very satisfied. This model comes with a wired remote that allows control of the interval between bursts (between 30 seconds and an hour) and the duration of the burst (lasting 1 second to 15 seconds). There is a third control for output (volume of fog during bursts). There is a switch to allow continuous fog (but keep the output set no higher than about 6 or so. There is a cycle time limit you need to keep in mind). I used continuous fog sparingly and then at a low output volume. Works pretty slick. It will take a little practice to learn what is going to work best for your venue. And be sure to use a high quality fog fluid. I use Visual Effect's non-toxic, water base, unscented fluid and a home made cooling box. This last Halloween it was the neighborhood sensation with back lit, low lying fog moving through a front yard cemetery.

Purchased this for Halloween 2020 Haunted Graveyard. First time I've ever spent decent money, and first Chauvet product. I normally use store brand/Walmart specials and they work okay, just not enough volume and options. I spent the $200 on this hoping the bad reviews about it not working or failing shortly after purchase were one-offs. They were not. The exterior box was fine, but the actual product box inside had clearly been retaped with a single thin piece of cheap tape. However, opening the box everything seemed brand new and neatly delivered. All pieces were accounted for and tightly bundled. I removed all pieces carefully, set it up outside for some trials. I notice the power was set to ON out of the box, which was odd. I turned it to OFF, plugged it in, and filled the tank about 75% with some brand new Swamp Juice fog fluid I purchased. I use this product every year and have used it in every fog machine without any issues. Once filled I turned the power on and plugged in the remote. Was excited to get a decent timer remote with both intervals and duration. On the remote, there are three options: Timer, Continuous, and Manual. Once plugged in I noticed the red light above the 'Continuous" option stayed on no matter what button was pressed, but that the other lights only activated if I selected them. Inside the fog machine next to the fluid tank are two LEDs that indicate the status of the tank, for temperature and readiness. I waited while it heated up and the red light turned off. Then the blue LED for the fluid tank came on and began flashing. According to the user manual, this means the device is ready, but that the fluid in the fill tank needs to be filled up. However, it was full already. There was no sound of a pump or priming and no fluid pulled through the line from the tank to the inner workings of the fog machine. The lines were very dry. It seemed like the pump simply was not registering the water level in the tank. I've read multiple comments about bad sensors, but I have no idea where they are in relation to this issue. There's a single clear plastic tune leading into the tank, with a small metal nozzle on the end that has a sponge-like filter on it, I assume to prevent impurities. Pressing the remote buttons for manual fog did nothing, and there was not even a sound from the machine like it was trying to work. No fluid was being pulled into the feed line. I noticed the Blue LED went solid for about 5 seconds once, then went back to flashing. Not sure what sensor is managing the tank level but possibly defective, I have no idea how to troubleshoot that. I called Chauvet Tech Support and explained the problem to tech support. he advised the fluid line was not priming and asked me to "move the unit left and right to 45 degrees to get it to prime." This seemed odd, like a lumbering swishing of the machine. I followed his directions but nothing changed. He then told me I was using the wrong fluid in the system and it probably clogged the line. I explained the system had not yet even sampled the fluid as the device had not even registered it was ready for dispensing. I felt pretty confident it was not a fog juice issues if the system never made it passed the "please fill tank" phase of setu.p. He advised it may be a bad pump/defective unit and to reach out to amazon to return it for a new one. Sadly, Amazon had no more in stock for this unit in time for Halloween. I do not know if this unit was used or brand new, as there were indications of both. But it should work out of the box. Period. For $200, it should be voice-guiding you through the setup and making a toast while you wait (IMO). I'm sad to see that I fell into the same group of disappointed purchasers. Back to my Spirit Halloween 39.95 device that's work consistently for 5 years...

Purchased for Halloween and the it is an outstanding fog machine. It produces an impressive amount of fog that fills the yard quickly, creating a fantastic atmosphere. The output is powerful, and it doesn’t take long to heat up, which is a huge plus. Setup is straightforward, and the included remote control makes it easy to adjust the fog output to get just the right effect. I used it for a Halloween party, and it really took the decorations and lighting effects to the next level. Overall, this fog machine is well worth the investment. Highly recommend!

I bought this I recently purchased the Hurricane 1600 fog machine, hoping for a reliable, high-quality unit. Unfortunately, my experience has been a major letdown. Right out of the box, the machine’s pump wouldn’t prime, so I couldn’t get it to produce any fog at all. Despite following all setup instructions carefully, the machine simply didn’t work. It kept blinking blue which means the tank is empty but that was not the case since I had just filled it. I contacted customer support who tried to troubleshoot it with me. They concluded that it was a manufacturers defect. My return window had passed so I couldn’t simply do a return to get a new one. I bought it early September, hoping to use it for Halloween. I should have tested it before but I never expected it to simply not work at all. Amazon told me to contact the manufacturer to use the warranty to get them to send me a replacement unit. However, the manufacturer said that since the order was handled by Amazon, that I would have to go through them. That makes no sense to me but fine. I went back to Amazon to get a refund. However, Amazon can only do a partial refund since it was past the return date. At least I get something but it sucks that I lose money just because I trusted the machine would be functional. For the price and the positive specs, I expected far better reliability and customer service. If you’re considering this machine, I recommend testing immediately so you do not end up with a faulty device. I’m hoping the replacement works as expected. I will update my review once the second unit arrives. Update Amazon ended up refunding me the full amount. I ordered the replacement fog machine and it works as it should. Right out of the box with no issues. Tested it the day it arrived. Updated my review from1 to 4 stars.

Had this for over 6 years, it really puts out a lot of fog, use the dense liquid for longer lasting affect, after use, use 50/50 distilled water and white vinegar in jar, put in the suction tube and discharger a few times. Each year I take it out of storage, I do this process before adding fog liquid, I have never had any issues, this is a very reliable brand.

Purchased this machine twice. Works great for a about a year this past time. I used it weekly both time, pretty heavy use. If you need something for occasional use, this machine is great. Almost tempted to try again, think I might need something that might be a bit tougher.

Being used daily in a large club room and is performing very well. Has a great smoke output and there's no need to wait for it to reheat all the time! Highly recommend.

exelente producto, fácil de operar y con flujo cobtinuo controlable , lo recomiendo

Le falla el sistema de calentamiento

Good quality machine but the instructions manual is a disaster and incomplete. For £159 you should to explain at least how to use the remote control, or the digital screen. Notting is in the manual

Tiene fallas de sistema, después del primer día de uso dejó de funcionar.
