Hi John,
That's great :thumbup:. Now looking at the smoke unit there are 4 wires red and white with a plug fitted that's the power lead. And two wires red and black with bare ends! So only 4 wires not 6?. So 2 wires missing. Brian...

No problems buddy, you will like it when its all wired up, just make sure you have put the correct amount of smoke fluid in, did you know you can can get smoke fluid which smells like diesel engine!! I its amazing, haven't tried it, got loads of the standard stuff to use up but will get some eventually.

Brizo,
I bought that Mega Steam fluid in Diesel and it is exactly as advertised. It is quick to go to vapor and produces a striking cloud of white exhaust. ( just like a start up on a wintry morning. ;o)
