I am intrigued by the smoke generator I saw on harbormodels. $99.00.
Any ideas on what the element in this would be? <www.harbormodels.com/site08/main_pages/smoker.htm>

The element is nichrome wire as used in electric fire elements. There is a load of info on here somewhere, maybe in the Scale section.
