    Would be interesting to see how it'd work out in that heat and with so many fans trying to dictate airflow, until all of the servers died of course.😥

    Don't tape the fog machine onto the duct, you need the air to hit the solution to create more fog.

    @-RIDEITLIKEYOUSTOLEIT- YES this is true! The fog needs to mix with the air to really create a lot of fog. If you do as he did, your machine will not create as much fog. Just leave the machine 3"-4" back from the inlet and 95% of the fog will shoot in, the remaining 5% will drift away. However, you will have 50% more fog going into the chiller.

    @@neuronoc.7343 NO! The fog MUST mix with a ton of air first. I know it seems counterintuitive for it not to be connected, BUT, leaving it 3"-4" back produces so much more fog, that it is not even close. I used to connect them and one night I forgot to and could not believe how much more fog was being generated. Do a test yourself, you will be shocked.

    I made this type of chiller a few years ago. It's main flaw is that it can't handle a large amount of fog at once. What we saw in the video was most probably a 400W fog machine that produces approximately 1,200 cubic feet per minuet. My 700W fogger produces 3,200 cubic feet per minuet. The fog traveled through the vent pipe so fast that it didn't stay cold. The best high capacity design is to have a PVC frame with wire mesh on top. A pipe goes through the middle.

    Keep in mind that you can use the same trash with the holes exactly where her put them. Once the chiller is filled with ice, the fog will be pumped through the pipe and will hit the lid and be forced down through the ice. It will travel through the wire mesh and will escape through the second hole. These types of chillers can easily handel large capacity fog machines.

    i don't know if anyone can help. I basically did a similar fog cooler. the fog machine is a 1000w. instead of attaching it to a box, i have it funning through a small plastic pumpkin head where it flows through the mouth of the pumpkin. However, huge problem, the smoke barely comes out of the pumpkin. and it doesn't lay low (and im using ground fog) I shortened the piping by about half and similar results. there doesn't seem to be any leaking. and when the smoke machine is on by itself, there is a great amount of smoke coming out...wtf? thoughts?

    Heavier thicker but for the money not necessary I really isn't that big of a difference and it cost you a lot more to fill you want a good surface area first smoke and fog you don't want to filter the fog her to be 125 to go straight through ice the whole point is to chill the fog so it stays low running it through the pipe doesn't get that enough contact that's a stupid stuff that shouldn't be included in take the pipe out and shoot it into the garbage can full of eyes to get a lot better effect

    Allowing an air gap between your fog machine and the inlet hose will create massive output increases. The gap creates a venturi effect and trust me when I say the results will speak for themselves.

I have not tested this so I don't know if tis true... But its something cool to try out!

    To get a similar effect you can use a vaccum cleaner hose and stick straws in it until the complete opening is full of straws. Put this hose on your smoke machine. It isn't as good as using ice but its better when you didn't have the space for such a big device.

    For leaking problems: Don't remove the ice from the bag itself, that way when the ice melts it stays in the plastic and you can freeze it again after or just throw them away without having problems of leaking. Just my 2 cents. :)
