Great tutorial

Great informative video. Now I want to get a fog machine for my display! I’ve had problems in the past with people vandalizing my display. Mostly kicking my light strings that outline my yard. I use motion sensors with an outdoor siren by YoLink to scare them off now.

Awesome 👏 are you planning on using in Christmas show?

You could use that strobe function and white light for a lightning effect. Make sure to properly clean that machine after the season or this may be the only one you will have it functional for. Spirit Halloween usually carries it but it is getting late in the season and they may be out. You can also use citric acid and distilled water which is basically the same thing and run it thru until there is no more fog and only steam. Then run it empty until it ether stops steaming or you hear a change in the pump sound indicating that the fluid path is clear. Leaving fog juice in the fogger can and in many cases plugs up the system to the point that the pump can't clear it or the pump itself may stop working. You may want to look into building a fog chiller next year which will keep most of the fog on the ground which looks really cool.

could you possibly attach the bottle of fog directly to the machine?

Nice video, may you make a video about the whole setup of how you play shows off raspberry pi? I was wondering for next year, haha.
