Although lightweight and easy to use, the Funfetti blasts out a torrent of confetti that can cover an area as large as 540sq.ft (50M²). It has a throw distance up to 30ft (9M) and its powerful bursts last as long as 25 seconds each.
"Breaking out the confetti is an instant way to ramp-up the fun factor at any party or event," said Nick Airriess, product manager for Chauvet DJ. "With holiday parties and New Year's Eve rapidly approaching, now is the perfect time to add a confetti launcher to your repertoire of effects.
"Of course, confetti is an effect you'll use year round in so many ways," added Airriess, "at weddings and celebrations of all types, to cap off an evening at a dance club, or to add excitement to a concert or performance. Confetti is a great 'extra' you can offer to your clients that will give your show added sparkle. And because the Funfetti is so easy to operate and doesn't require CO?, you can bring it out anywhere, even places like banquet halls and private parties."
The Funfetti works with most types of confetti, and Chauvet DJ offers three control options to meet a variety of user needs: manual, wireless remote or DMX. Simple manual control is provided via a convenient display on the rear of the unit. Additionally, the Funfetti comes with its own handheld wireless remote, allowing it to be operated from a DJ booth, backstage or any location up to 100ft away. The Funfetti can also be integrated into a lightshow via DMX operation; it features three-pin XLR connectors and runs on one DMX channel.
The Funfetti is lightweight and easily portable at just 13.6 pounds (6.2 kg) and 11.2 x 9 x 21.8 Inches (284 x 228 x 553 mm). It includes a versatile double-bracketed yoke for easy floor mounting or hanging from truss.
