Well thats alot of smoke,what material did you use for the wick? Is the element stock H/L or something different? Is the unit fan driven? Is it proportional as well? I am within a week of releasing a new smoker design for RC MODELS.Tanks,trucks,ships of many scales all using the same smoker unit in one of four sizes and voltage range from 5v-12v for the fan,the elements voltage varies dependent on what type of model.The 1/16 scale unit is pre-wired with the standard two wire H/L smoker plug,and wiring for motor connections.So I am interested in your idea's and your unit.Cheers Blake

Hi Phil
Certainly pumps out the smoke. Did you use the HL filament?
Wouldn't mind seeing some video shots of the unit itself showing how it works.
Cheers
