Here's a good article that tells you how it works. ...

Wow.. And yet it's STILL cheaper to buy fireworks from China than to make them right here. Pretty scary stuff.

OH...you can't forget...hazmat is not being shipped out of the Hong Kong ports due to the demonstrations...Due to a lot of inland trucking to other...

copy/pasted quote from a customs broker: Plus now the importers will be experiencing early delays due to the factory explosion couple days ago.

In addition to the 15% only being on the FOB price, many of us importers that paid early were able to take advantage of a stronger than normal US...

Thanks for the responses guys, and thanks for helping me pick the right equipment in an earlier thread. I wound up starting off with a 36 and 2 18's...

Yea, 75' shouldn't be a problem with 14v. The longer runs or more matches per cue step it up to 24v and you should have no issues

Trump made a statement, I think yesterday, that he doesn't think there will be trade deal made by the end of the year. Dow dropped about 1% on that...

So stranded might be better after all. Thanks for the info. I?m going to do a test w the 75 foot cables running the internal lipo battery on the mods...

Consumers always pay 100% of the tariffs. The producers pass it on to the consumers. They aren't going to let it affect their bottom line.

D-Day is approaching and I don't hear or see a solution..........

Not about signal strength like a network. Your only sending an electrical current like plugging in a power plug. No "data" is being sent. What you...

Go to monoprice and get the premade cables in whatever length you need. Plain cat5 stranded 24ga pure copper PATCH cables (not a crossover cable). ...

Thanks for the info guys. I'm hoping to be able to get 100' lengths of wire to spread out my show a little. I was just worried about signal strength...

Sorry my pics came out sideways ---- they were straight on my computer?

Fired a couple of fountains and 500g cakes (Titan by Stinger). The Titan was pretty nice am gone to get more.

Yes, I have seen the same. I believe it has better construction and is pretty much the industry standard and pretty cheap so I plan on using it. I...

Yes dealer apologized and pulled. You were seeing a crudely reduced image of an 80/16 brick label. The image has been around for years. Typical...

Evidence Dave's singing lesson money went for fireworks as a child

It looks like you are using the MJG Initiators. How did they work for you?

Did you send the seller a message to tell him? Other than it looks like a cheap copy. To educate us, what is it you are seeing?

Are you sure all Cat6 is 23AWG? I’ve been researching that and it doesn’t seem to always be the case.

Rick, I only plan one long run with 14 mini slats I purchased so I am going to use CAT6 UTP for it. My understanding is that the shielding does not...

Rick - if you go with cat5- STP is shielded twisted pair vs UTP unshielded twisted pair. Considering the cable is only used to send a current and...
