KAM Atmosphere Haze Machine KHM600 Review BY Ellaskins

0:00 Just think on these lines

Right, let's imagine you've just spent a fortune on your light show but you're not getting the light show you thought you would get. It's very likely because you're missing one crucial part and that is your haze machine or your smoke machine. So just think on these lines. You've spent a great deal of money on a light and what are you getting? If we look at your light show from that light at 100% you're probably only getting about 20% of your light show What the people are seeing is the light itself and then they're also seeing where that light ends up on them, on the floor, on the wall, the surrounding area. And that's it. They're not getting anything in between. And to get that, to get the full 100% light show from your light you do need a smoke or haze machine. Now the trouble is with a lot of places around the world

They've got smoke detectors, so it's very difficult to get a smoke machine in. But then if you buy something that will put out a tiny amount of smoke or haze, then you may be in with a chance. So it's actually very annoying when you do spend a lot of money on a light and you just think you're not getting the benefit of that light. You look into getting a smoke or haze machine. Now I've got this one here from Cam. This is the Cam Atmosphere. The model number on this is the KHM600. So just to give you a rough idea of what it looks like, it's quite big and heavy. There is smoke, sorry, haze fluid in the back, I beg your pardon. Now on the side here we can move the angle The DJ Tutor allows you to control the direction of the haze, so you can have it facing down or up. Now when you turn the haze machine on, all of a sudden it will start to boot up. So if I just turn it on, there we go. Now as you can see in the room I had this on earlier on, and it does come with its own little controller. So if I bring this out, you've got three options with the controller. Right, you can see the haze working now. Right, I'm going to turn that off.

2:19 The controller itself is very simple to use

Because A, I don't want to fill the room with haze and B, I want you to hear me. So the controller itself is very simple to use. You have intervals, so this of course, interval means that you can have the haze on all the time or you can maybe stop it after so many seconds and it starts again or so many minutes and starts again and so on. The other one is output, so output is based on how much haze you want out into the room and then duration of course is for how long you want the haze to last before it stops which is sort of similar I suppose to interval. You can do timer on and off, you can go continuous or you can go manual as well.

Now this is the KEH M600, now at the back For the atmosphere, we have a small compartment here with this container where we put our haze fluid and we have a plug for the controller. I've got a USB plug there as well. And then of course it comes with your basic what I class as a kettle lid. Plug that into the back. Because with a haze machine or smoke machine, what you don't do, you never do, is turn it on and off, on and off all night. Your haze machine or smoke machine will be on all night, but then it's up to you to determine whether you want haze or smoke out during the course of the evening and when you want it during the course of the evening. Right, so I'll just turn that off.

Now to give you an idea of what it looks like... I've got here a Laser World laser. This is the Garden Star laser, pro laser. It's RGBW, it's red, green, blue and white and I have used this quite a bit in my gigs. So what I'm going to do now is just turn the light off there and turn the laser on. There you go. Right so let's just take the camera off the stand. I don't want to shine the camera at the laser in any way if I can.

You can see the sort of effect that you get. It's far better an effect like that because you can see the laser lights and that to me is beautiful. It's far better than, as I was talking about earlier, you just seeing the image from there and seeing the image there. Now you've got everything Thank you for watching.
