I was wondering if there was somewhere I could order a huge pack of small mirrors of decent quality. I have been playing with a fog machine and want to try and make shapes and experiment with different things, but I don't want to go buy a ton of cheap mirrors, because I notice it makes the beam diverge like crazy. Any input is greatly appreciated!

Thank you! How do you go about mounting them? I was planning on engineering some solution, but figured there may be some secrets.

there are just too many possibilities... I like Velcro tape and any handy object to adhere to from boxes and glasses to walls and flashlights... also clay is good for a fast temporary mount that can do any angle -GH

Big question... Do you have any pictures of your setups?

For mounting them how about hot glue and popsicle sticks or just the hot glue...

No, they only count some billions of them, one each microsecond, when they have difficult to go in "standby" mode .....
