I was contacted by a magician for technical advice regarding a manufactured smoke effect that was proving to be unreliable. It got me thinking about how I could do the same effect using whatever I had lying around. It just so happened I already had a small low-voltage air pump and some thick silicone vacuum tubing already, so I added an e-cig and the job is done.
