Security fog:  the details.

 

It's 'Halloween smoke'

To make security fog, FlashFog injects a special fluid into a very sophisticated heat exchanger. The mixture instantly heats up and expands 2,000 times.

FlashFog is so efficient that two tablespoons protect an average room!  Halloween smoke, was invented in the 1940’s.

Original fog concept. In security fog we use much smaller fog particles.

pharma grade

Our 'smoke' security fluid is controlled by batch number and made to precise pharmaceutical standards.

Everyday Ingredients

Security fog is made of FDA approved ingredients.  You probably had them today in your toothpaste, coffee and bread.

real-time

A microprocessor runs custom software to dynamically adjusts flow-rate in real-time, to optimize your security protection.

Cleanup?  ...none

You simply can’t tell there was a security fog activation.

Stains, zero

Safe even on furs, film, valuable paper and other sensitive materials.

Films, zero

Even on flat glass, top of display cases. Deposition only after hours of saturated security fog, which is probably not your use-case.

Smells, zero

The fog smells sweet, and only while it protects. It doesn't smell like smoke. The next day, it's as if nothing had happened.

Guns are safe

We protect antique guns and sensitive optics. No condensation inside lenses. FlashFog security fog does not rust blue steel.

You are safe

Entertainers spend hours (every day) in similar fog. You may yourself have had a lot of fun in it!

Electronics are safe

Security fog protects data-centers, electronics stores, camera stores... It's extremely clean.

FAQ

Protect easily. See our security fog installation section.

Flashfog protects for at least 30 minutes. The fog is stable up to 45 minutes.

An optional timer allows re-firing.  However, note that after about two hours you will start to get tiny droplets deposited onto flat horizontal glass surfaces. Factory defaults are for a single activation, which will not cause deposition. 

Any fog fluid deposition is easily wiped with a wet towel.

“In and out in 7 seconds”

Tropical Firearms' FlashFog got tested quickly;  It was all caught on video. Here is the story...

False alarms are not a problem.

Protect with fog for just $10 dollars. 

Economical

Full security fog activations, where the area is completely obscured average $10. At these prices some customers activate just to show friends!

Most cost less

Most false alarms are user error. People get the alarm code right the second time. This typically takes five to ten seconds, using only $2 to $5 worth of security fog fluid.

Easy to avoid

Flashfogs can be wired to an independent sensor, to confirm the break-in. See the FAQ below.

FAQ

You have to see this! Fate of Destinee tried FlashFog at the SHOT Show. Here is her take...

What does the fog feel like?


Share

A sweet smell

For easy identification, the fog smells citrusy. The smell does not linger.

Extremely dry

The fog feels just like thick air. The particles are so tiny they float around for at least 30 minutes.

Sounds change

Sounds are notoriously muffled, which adds to the eerie, scary feeling.

It's not a trap.

Like an airbag, FlashFog hurls a barrier in real-time. Protects before burglars even come in.

Why not trap burglars?

The success of a security system is measured in dollars saved and the probability of the burglars returning.  We hit it out of the park! Trapping burglars has ramifications that go well beyond property protection and do not add to the bottom line.

How is this done?

FlashFog complies with the European standard on security fog (CENELEC EN 50131-8). Our manuals implement best practices developed with input from police and fire departments worldwide.

Thom owns an incredible gun club.

It's about $20 / shot.

Once security fog is gone, you simply can’t tell there was an activation.

You won't run out

Fluid levels are permanently monitored and the security fogger lets you know if it's running out.

It's not a printer

It's cheap to run. The fluid only needs replacing every three years, unless off course the bandits try to break-in. FlashFog only needs about 50 watts (small model).

You only use a fraction

Most users get at least four full security activations per fluid charge. Depending on sizing, you get between two and eight activations per charge.
