Instant Start Smoke Machine

[Aaron_perth]

 

I am looking at a project. I need an "instant start" machine. 

So, when the power is turned on, the machine will start fogging without pushing a remote start button or level. 

I want to connect the smoke machine to a Wifi Enabled home automation switch. When this is activated the machine will start to fog? 

Any ideas?

It's an interesting one. I don't know about the wifi thing but all the smoke machines out there can be triggered manually or via timer, so you switch it on and the machine will activate after a certain time for a preset duration which you've set. 

I'd say by now there'd be some apps to control these things. How much research have you done to see what's out there?

Some brands come with remote triggers too by the looks on some DJ stores. Maybe head in to your local shop to check them out.
