COLBOR CF5 Overview

From Manufacturer

The CineFlare CF5 from COLBOR is a reliable and effective fog smoke machine, designed for precise smoke direction. Its tilted gun-inspired build allows for comfortable handling, enabling users to precisely direct the flow during various applications, particularly low-angle smoke effects. The CF5's adaptable body provides access to interchangeable accessories such as an adjustable magnetic RGB light and fan, a flexible hose, and a nozzle cover. When in "Master Mode," the smoke machine offers various settings and modes that introduce new possibilities during the creative process. 

Adjustable Smoke Density
With over 25 levels of smoke-density adjustment functions, the CF5 provides excellent control over smoke concentration with no performance lost at its size. Thanks to a powerful 40W output and a 12mL oil chamber, this compact fog smoke machine delivers twice the smoke volume compared to traditional 20W machines and maintains maximum output for 10 minutes.
Magnetic RGB Light and Fan Effects
The attachable magnetic RGB light and fan offers 360° color-ring adjustment, allowing the user to enhance the ambiance effect on the smoke. The fan's adjustable speed assists in adjusting the smoke flow, providing additional creative opportunities for things such as food or poduct photography or enhancing light scattering for character modeling.
Master Mode and Supplied Accessories
  • Custom settings for Continuous Smoke Duration
  • Interval timing
  • Smoke burst interval selection
  • Flexible hose and nozzle cover for broader smoke dispersion
  • Remote control can support wireless operation up to 10m
Intelligent Temperature Control
The CF5 is constructed from aviation-grade, high-temperature-resistant materials and features an intelligent temperature control sensor to prevent overheating and burns, ensuring safety and reliability. Additionally, it takes care of smoke dust and unpleasant smells thanks to its liquid's food-grade plant glycerin, which is colorless and odorless.

IT IS A VERY GOOD HIGH QUALITY FOG TOY.

Home Inspection Tool

By Ruben
Rated 5 out of 5

As a home inspector, I’m always searching for tools that don’t just add value—but completely transform how I present findings. This mini smoke generator did exactly that. I originally bought it to verify if exhaust fans actually moved air and to check for negative pressure or drafting issues. What I didn’t expect was how game-changing it would be. With a single puff, invisible problems become visible. You can see the airflow—or lack of it—right in front of your client. No more explaining stale air or suspected backdrafting. Now I show it. This little unit delivers professional-grade results in a compact form, and it does so consistently. It turns a routine inspection into a demonstration of expertise. Clients are impressed. Realtors take notice. It sets you apart. If you’re a home inspector serious about your craft and looking for a tool that elevates both performance and perception—this is it. Buy it. Use it. You won’t go back.
