Dimplex Cassette 500 R SS New — classic Opti-Myst flames with logs
A 508 mm cassette for building into a recess, surround or furniture. Opti-Myst technology turns ordinary water into a cold mist lit by LEDs, creating a three-dimensional flame with gentle smoke that is hard to tell from the real thing. The R version runs from a built-in water tank, so no plumbing is needed — just a power socket. The SS version comes with a decorative log set.
What makes it special
- Classic Opti-Myst effect. moving orange flames with smoke; intensity is adjustable from the remote.
- Glowing logs. the logs are lit from inside to imitate smouldering embers. The New version has a redesigned log set.
- Crackling logs. crackling sound effect switched on from the remote.
- Modular. joins other Cassette 500 and 1000 units into a line of any length with near-invisible seams.
- Easy control. Bluetooth remote and wired remote; several fires can share one remote.
- No plumbing needed. the built-in tank gives 8–10 hours of operation; all you need is a socket.
How it works
An ultrasonic transducer breaks water into micro-droplets. The cold mist rises above the fuel bed and is lit from below by LEDs, producing moving flames and soft smoke. The mist is not hot: it is safe to touch, leaves no soot and adds a little humidity to the room.
Installation and care
The cassette fits into a frame or surround made of any material; height is set with adjustable feet. The control panel is hidden, and both a Bluetooth remote and a wired remote are included. See the manufacturer's manual for installation dimensions.
A full tank gives 8–10 hours of operation, after which it is topped up by hand. If you need continuous operation, look at the P version with a mains water connection.
