Fog Machine Relay's

[caniac]

anyone know where i can find one?  Have a Chauvet 701 or 901.

Is this for a internal relay or an external triggerable relay?

back east someone built me a relay/controller/etc.  I plugged in the fog machine and this device plugged into it's wired "remote".  From that point I could control it from LOR.

Do you still have this device? Is there any numbers on the part inside of the box, which we assume is a relay with 120VAC coil.

Looks like the Chauvet 700 series has a permanently wired remote button: http://www.chauvetlighting.com/products/manuals/Hurricane_700_UM_Rev9_WO.pdf

You would have to rewire the remote to add a 120v relay and drive it off an AC LOR channel.

 

Almost the same with the Chauvet 900 series, except you'd need a 5 pin DIN plug then an AC relay to control it.

 

Both can be activated by a single LOR AC channel, but would require a little technical help here and there.

I use to have a 1300 series Chauvet and someone had made these for me.  Given shipping limitations all of our Halloween and Christmas Stuff got left behind.  we went home in October but after a few hours I could not locate them.  went with a smaller Chauvet fog machine and am now trying to find something to control it from LOR.

For simplicity and easy replacement, I favor using the fogger from Party City for $30.

 

Built a relay to replace the controller and off I go.

 

A No Brainer for me.
