Chauvet Nimbus Dry ice machine

First look November 2012

Contents of the video

So here you have the brand new and incredible Nimbus. And what you are looking at is a new dry ice machine from Chauvet. Extremely powerful, low-lying fog effect that is guaranteed to make your guests want more. It will take 10 pounds of dry ice, drop it into the 5 gallons of hot water that's inside, and you're going to see the effect that you're not going to believe. So I'm going to get my assistant here, Corby, Open up the lid and show you how. Don't, don't, with an assistant, don't you normally have like a really sexy blonde? Why do we have to have him? He's sexy and blonde but on Tuesdays. Yeah, but I presume you don't touch that stuff, do you? No. Dry ice. Dry ice, no. Don't touch that. You're not going to want to touch this with your bare hands. That would actually burn you even though it's cold. Yes. So now we're dumping it in the basket. Go ahead. We'll seal the lid. The lid is airtight. And then...

He's going to grab the lever on the side and he's going to drop the basket into the hot water and then out comes the dry ice effect. Check it out, that is sweet. You can touch it, it's a little bit warm, also a little bit cool depending on how far away your hands are. Wow, look at that, that is immense. And there's Carl swimming in it. You know what I'm picturing here is bride and groom, you know they come in, the first dance for the bride and groom. Absolutely, bride and groom dancing on the clouds right here. My personal opinion of something like this is you could say, you know what, bride and groom first dance. You'd probably only have to use it once. And you could charge big bucks just for the privilege of the bride and groom walking like that. That's crazy. Also as well, a lot of events now they have smoke machine detectors don't they? So this...

Am I right in saying will not be affected? It won't affect the smoke machines? You are absolutely correct. This will never go above your knees. Okay. This is the true deal. Yeah. This is complete dry ice. Will never go above your knees. Wow, that is sweet. That is very sweet. But again, like Halloween parties and you know, amazing isn't it? Absolutely amazing. Fantastic. Are you allowed to say retail on this? Yeah, yeah. Retail on this is going to be $999. Okay. And that's now, but if people are watching this, you know, again, it's MBLV, we're in February of 2012, so price could go up, but then again, it could go down. Who knows? Okay, alright, thank you very much. You're welcome.
