Chauvet Hurricane 700 MOD

Chauvet Hurricane 700 MOD
For the mobile DJ on a budget, the Chauvet Hurricane 700 is a great starter fogger for your setup. It is small and portable, puts out 1500 cfm of fog, has a wired remote, a 0.6L tank capacity and is $20 cheaper than the next model up, the Hurricane 900. But although the Hurricane 700 is cheaper, it lacks a key feature that the other more expensive Hurricane models have. A blue LED tank light so that you can monitor the amount of fog fluid in your tank in the dark.

So in this instructable, I will show you how to wire a Blue 5mm LED to your Hurricane 700 fogger and light up your fog tank!
