    It is based (as are most fog generators) on the vaporizer principle, i.e. a glycol fluid is evaporated and condenses into fog when leaving the fog nozzle. However, the TINY-FOGGER only heats when fog is actually needed. It uses only 20 milliamperes in idle status and consequently it may remain connected to the the battery for several hours with no discharging to speak of.
