Save a little bit of money - I have a 55 gal barrell of Form Release oil that I use. It's a lot cheaper than the MDW stuff, always available locally (most oil supply houses have it) and if you get a couple of friends together and buy it you can usually get a deal on it. It leaves beautiful white smoke that doesn't smell, and hangs around nicely. See Below. These were shot with the smoke set between 1/4 and 1/2 output. More than that leaves a ton of smoke, but goes through the oil REALLY fast, and I only have the 3 gal tank....

Comment about the safety thing. Turns out I have used my smoke system more than once for people to see me. Doesn't take long when you leave a couple puffs out behind you for them to find out.
I like it and think everyone should have one!
Cheers,
Stein
