00:00Alright, so you've booked the venue, the DJ's locked in, the lights are ready, and then the dance floor just
00:05looks, flat.
00:06Nothing kills a party vibe faster than beams of light with nothing to bounce off of.
00:11That's where a good fog machine comes in, and I've spent way too many hours digging through reviews and price
00:16drops to bring you the top 5 fog machines for party venues right now.
00:20Let's get into it.
00:22First up is the 1000W water-based hazer with DMX and wireless control.
00:28Now, here's the thing people get wrong, a hazer isn't the same as a fogger.
00:33This thing puts out a fine, even haze that hangs in the air for ages, so every single light beam
00:37in the room becomes visible.
00:40It's what real clubs and touring shows use.
00:43It's sitting at about $156, it's got a 4.6 rating with over $4,700 sold, and honestly, if you're
00:50running a venue where lighting is the main event, this is the one that makes everything else look expensive.
00:55Next, the SHHD-S1500W vertical fogger with 24 RGB LEDs.
01:02This one shoots straight up, which is such a cool look for a dance floor or an entrance moment, and
01:07the LEDs light the column of fog in whatever color you want.
01:10It runs on DMX 512, so you can sync it right into your existing lightboard.
01:16What sold me though is the 2-year warranty, at $124, that's the cheapest one on this list with real
01:22coverage behind it.
01:23Great pick if you're using it week after week.
01:27Coming in third, the 1500W DMX fog machine with 24 LEDs and a remote.
01:33Very similar vertical spray effect, but this one leans into the plug-and-play side of things.
01:39You get the wired and wireless remotes, so if you're not running a full lighting desk, you can just hit
01:44a button when the drop comes and get that big vertical blast.
01:48It's about $139 with a 4.6 rating, and for mobile DJs or anyone doing house parties in small halls,
01:55that simplicity is worth a lot.
01:57Now, if you're on a budget, look at this 1200W fogger with RGB LEDs and remote control.
02:05$46.
02:07That's it.
02:08And it still gives you DMX 512, colored lighting, and enough output to fill a decent-sized room.
02:14Obviously it's not built like a touring rig, but for a birthday, a Halloween setup, or a first fog machine
02:20to test the waters, the value here is kind of ridiculous.
02:24Over 4,300 people bought it and it's holding a 4.6, so clearly it's doing the job.
02:29And finally, the premium pick, the 1500W vertical machine with 24 RGB effect lights, wireless remote and DMX.
02:38This is the only one on the list with a perfect 5-star rating, and that says a lot.
02:43Faster heat up, thicker output, better build quality, and the LED effects are noticeably brighter than the cheaper models.
02:51It's $239, so it's the biggest spend here, but if you're running an actual venue and you need something that
02:57fires reliably every single night, this is the one you buy once and forget about.
03:02Alright, that's the top 5 all the links are down in the description if you want to check current prices,
03:07since these move around a lot.
