Ok, so a friend of mine , suggested that i use a pump he had lying around as a smoke pump
this is a kingtech pump of a k80 turbine, that is not being used

has anyone ever done something like this before?

sounds interesting ....

Perfect!! cheap brushed controller 2 cell pack of either A123 or little lipo/ion.. however another thing I did is put a switch on mine, so I dont have to unplug it.. the current draw is small enough..
This is exactly what I did. Simple brushed speed controller and a used/worn ou turbine pump plus a simple A123 pack. Works a treat!

Made my own smoke nozzle as well with some 1/8 OD stainless tubing but you can also order them online from Dreamworks, etc.
