Great comparison. Thanks pyro. No worries on the ignitors, you live you learn. As someone pointed out UKFR has done some great testing with igniters over the years.

Ghostacular ( rings are tough for cans) 9. Neon strike 10. American firepower OL Rank - effect shells only 1. Master 7 2. Master 6 3.

I hear so much good about Chroma, but in a side by side they looked pretty weak, I'd put them last or right above American Firepower. Most the SFX stuff has been super high quality for me, that Minecraft was SWEET. The top spot is a tie for me between Geisha and Minecraft.
What works really well for me with the mjg igniters is actually taking the fuse out and putting the igniter directly in the lift charge. never had a misfire doing that.

As others are saying, cut the fuse to expose the powder. Ive been using the mjg clips and they seem to work well also. I passfire most of my shells to save on ignitors and I'm limited on cues, but if your already using one ignitor per shell, might as well go directly to the lift charge. More satisfying having the instant launch also loll

I have thought about going directly to the lift charge. But I don't like the idea of having the igniter down the tube.
@brettarnold2419
Жыл бұрын
@MileHighPyro-303 it works well, doesn't affect the shell leaving the tube. Just add a screw on the rack to wrap the ignitor around or drill a small hole at the top of the tube to knot the wires in it. This keeps the shell from yanking the wires as it leaves
@middletnpyro
Жыл бұрын
@MileHighPyro-303 couple tips when poking directly into the lift, always leave the shroud around the match, push the shroud/match all the way into the shell, tape the hole, if you do use the mjg initiators with fuse leave a space between the fuse and the match head, don't push the fuse right against the match, and most importantly tie off the end of the wire to a screw or nail on the rack

@@MileHighPyro-303 CodyBPyrotechnics has some videos on fusing mortars/racks where he shows cutting off the bottom of the cans and pouring the lift charge into the tube, then having two small (only big enough for fuse to go in) holes drilled near the bottom. One input, one output both around the lift charge height (right next to bottom). Dump the lift charge, put the cannister sitting on top of the lift, then put fuse into and out of (then from the output to the next input) and hot glue the fuse onto the tube (put fuse into the hole then hotglue then lift charge on the off chance the lift is ignited by the glue.. they said they haven't had it happen in over 1,000 cans though.)

It's the small piece of white fuse that is causing a problem. When you hit that quick fuse with the igniter that short amount of fuse explodes. It's not giving it enough time to ignite it's just blowing out the tape . Alright personally don't care for electronic lighting I hand light everything timed with fuse.
@MileHighPyro-303
Жыл бұрын
Interesting thought. I had tried this method before and it worked much better than just attaching the igniter to green visco on rockets or cakes. Now it's the same method possibly causing the issue. Back to the drawing board. I will likely manually fuse my shells and rockets for the 4th.

You dont want your visco to touch the igniter if using on cans get MJG to visco connectors or carefully notch the shroud, split your visco & run the visco across the top of the shroud rather than down in it & then tape it down. 🙌🎆

Even if they false advertise a bit with the shell length(which most of these companies do), their shells are still solid. Great prices especially if you get cases on sale. The branding/artwork is sick and I love that every shell is different, numbered, and labeled. For 60g shells you can’t really go wrong.

Nice vid man. I live near Denver myself (centennial). Can anyone point me in the right direction to find some better cans. I go to the Wyoming border, the phantom and pyro stores. I haven't been to the other ones up there but those two stores have the same Crap every year and basically none of the stuff on this video and the idiots that work there for the season don't know anything. Any tips on where to go for other brands in or near Colorado. Do the other few stores up there have better selection or do you order online. Specifically salutes which i can't find anywhere. The only thing I found that I was looking for is some of those whistling sonic cans. Sub to my fellow Coloradan

Since the full kits are divided into 4 main effects, you can buy just 6 of the effect you want. Example, Kobushi is Geisha kit split into the 4 groups, Sugar Skulls is Bombas split into the 4, etc. The effects on the box from 6 pack to full kit are identical I believe. You could be right though, they may not just be rewraps. I’ve never tried any outside the main kits.
