HZ-1500LED
HZ-1500LED: LED Fog Machine 1500W
160.495UK
Introduction
A high efficiency 1500W haze machine capable of producing 20,000 cu.ft per minute of haze to rapidly fill larger venues. The haze effect can then be highlighted with an array of colours from the 9 bright LED's housed in the front of the unit. The haze and light effects are easily controlled using either the included keyfob-style RF wireless remote or by 6-channel DMX connection. The 2.3 litre fluid bottle can be removed for easy refilling and there is a slot window to indicate the current fluid level.
Caution: Please read this manual carefully before operating. Damage caused by misuse is not covered by the warranty
