    Quoted from yancy:

    I'm so relieved to learn that water can't damage wood or electronics.

    Yeah I think that’s my fear as well? As these games have internal fans they are constantly drawing in fresh air to keep the computers and power supplies cool. You can even see in the one AC/DC video it’s actually inhaling the smoke in to the bottom of the cabinet from the lower vents. Curious how this will long term effect electronics and coil components with moisture.

    Quoted from liorillusion:

    So its not same liquid. This one made to not to do it
    Im not talking about humidifier. You misunderstand. Its TOTALY not same

    I think he was simply responding to your comparison of a Vaporizer? They both fill the air with a mist of water, hot or cold depending on which you are referring. Seems like it would be an interesting effect just understand the concerns with these high dollar electronic games. All good.

    A vaporizer heats water and adds steam to the air. It has internal heating technology that boils the water before releasing it into the air as steam, creating a warm mist.
    A humidifier releases an ultra-fine cool mist into the air. Some cool-mist humidifiers come with ultrasonic technology, and others use an internal wick filter and fan.

    Quoted from Fizz:

    I really like this mod, and in fact, you have gotten me interested in maybe using a fog machine like this for Halloween.
    But I am not having much luck finding information about how they work. Do you have any good link which explains it? Specifically, as others have asked, what is it that actually ends up getting sprayed into the air?

    Reading the MSDS sheet from the gallon manufacturer it appears to be 95% water. Depending on your fog rate it would put 1 gallon of water in the air in a day or a month depending on how often you fire it. I am not saying this is good or bad definitely be fun for Halloween I however suspect in a home arcade the reaction would be the same as the young lady in his second video trying to play ST. Instant stop and waving smoke away from face. As for the gallon of air born water thats every individuals call if they see that as a game room plus or minus. I applaud the attempt on something new. Here is a link to the MSDS sheet per website. Don't see much on using it with electronics but not clear.
