Review of: Jem
Roadie X-steam by Paul Burton
24/8/04
A very high output water-based fog machine. It uses two 2.5Kw
heater blocks and an internal fan to 'bulk out' the effective fog
volume and velocity of the fog exiting the unit.
Popular with concerts outdoors and stadiums for its
rugged design and maneuverability on stage and on the road. It uses
half a litre of fog per minute and weighs in at 186kg.
However, I would argue that this machine is oversized
and expensive in relation to the actual volume of fog it generates
- the same volume could very practically be generated using a number
of individual fog machines together with a fan, and retain greater
portability - even spreading the effect over a greater area by positioning
the individual machines in different locations.
Power rating - 5kW
