google translator worked, but always a good thing is to ask the guy the question yourself, as from what I can see it isn't clear enough how he did it.


His quotes:

Then it was on to the turbine for the shot smoke. Freude
This consists of an electric motor of at 9V 10000 - 15000U/min. ensure that drives a fan of a PC fan to a diameter of 60mm.
The resulting pressure then passes through the housing in the smokers (HL-smoking filament of a 500W lamp) and from then on, the smoke through a normal tube pressed into the gun barrel.
For lack of space was all built and lying as a complete unit, which one means of plug contact can easily and quickly, and expand.
Because I guess that live coals of the motor at the high voltage of 9V, unfortunately, have not eternal, and thus can be changed relatively quickly. (But even after hours of torture canon, this case has not yet taken place!) Augenzwinkern großes Grinsen
First, a cardboard template cut .....

Then copper plate (Have I not had, or I would have taken brass plate). Augenzwinkern

The result is now ready ... (Yes, I'm not born for soldering! großes Grinsen )

And now the connection and installation in the tower .... Plus Ähhhhmmmm believe was red ... or ?!?!?! Augen rollen verwirrt großes Grinsen

Well done! Installed and wired ....

And now a series of pictures of the result .... Videos will follow once I've slightly reduced. Augenzwinkern
With my failed .... Önen I-Net line otherwise it would take 1000 years to upload. traurig Augen rollen



Hope this all helps 971wright?!

Hi Dont know how he gets 9v he only has one battery and its 7,2, v and not that big for all the smokers and an El-Mod unit they will eat Batteries for fun bet the run time is only about 15mins .Just like the way he has done it love the M.G. moving around and smoking.

Wow! Nice find Pete!
Looks like he's fitted a wireless video cam in the drivers position too.
Cheers

That is a fantastic addition.

Much respect!

If this were available as a system that require no more space than the factory smoker uses who would want the system? Because if we can produce this cloud behind how difficult would it be to cause this effect in the front via the barrel?

I had a word with Shuan at Tanks n Trolls to find out how he did this but he said he was not doing "small tanks" anymore and was concentrating on large scale.
