3. Description of the MANIAC II™
The MANIAC II™ RGBA LED MOVING HEAD FOGGER is two machines in one.
Intelligent moving light fixture with a fogger built right in. It utilizes a total of 24 5W LED
lamps in Red, Green, Blue, and Amber for rapid color changing along with dimmer,
strobe and color mixing functions. This machine can be used with its fog and lights, lights
only or fog only. Its adjustable fogging effects are amazing when used in conjunction
with the LED lighting or without. The MANIAC II’s instant stop technology allows for
bursts of fog without any wispy fog escaping when you don’t want it. The full 540 degree
pan takes approximately 2 seconds to complete, while the 270 degree tilt only needs
about ¾ second, so you can get the fog and light to where you want it, quickly! This
machine can operate on a flat surface or hung overhead using the included hardware and
c-clamps.
