Welcome to the forum Carolyn, hope you will post what ever it is your building as it sounds interesting.Hi - a quick question which may be utterly stupid, but I'm a complete novice, so please let me down gently!
I need to put something similar to this set up in a handheld prop - ideally run on a 9v battery. No fan is required, and I need it to smoke for a few minutes at a time.
From watching the build, I'm thinking that a connection from the wrapped nichrome to the battery clip with a switch could produce a decent amount of smoke for a short time. Am I mad?! Will I need to factor in a resistor? Any help very, very gratefully received...

HI Carolyn ON stage eh wont you be better off with dry ice ? if you can get it that isAs odd as it sounds it's for a 'smoking' crystal ball! Lights are a doddle for it but getting the inside of the globe filled with swirling smoke while it's carried around on stage has been proving to be a bit more challenging...
Dry ice would be amazing but getting hold of it over the length of the run would blow my budget.HI Carolyn ON stage eh wont you be better off with dry ice ? if you can get it that is

I've investigated them, as people are getting some great results - the downside is you have to have a pump to force air into the system (to simulate the 'inhale') and that starts making it more complicated and noisy!Hi Carolyn. Could you perhaps rig up something from a vape device?
The crystal ball is an acrylic globe light fitting - about 8 or 9 inchesø.Come on guys cant anyone eles think up something for this young lady ? an Carolyn how big is your
crystal ball ?
