Delova Rana's!

http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s2uyTaw5jXY/TypyDsRpVbI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/wTdmb0FiKoM/s200/4x+delova+rana+pyromoravia.jpg

This type of firecracker was originally made for simulating a mortar strike, which lead to a special type of Delova Rana's designed specifically for electronic ignition. Making them ideal for scenario training, and professional firework shows. These are still used greatly by people playing airsoft. But are no longer used by the military. External looks: Round thick casing, usually comes with a standard boring label. Except for Delova Rana Profi, which has a pretty interesting yellowish label. The fuse is high quality time fuse, primed with a large matchhead, making it easier for ignition. "Delova Rana" is Czech/Slovakian and means "deep wound" (also interpreted as canon shot), which is sort of macabre. But great for keeping little kids from playing with these things. Most Delova Rana's are made by the company "Privatex Pyro" in Slovakia. Except for the Profi type, which is made by the company "Profi Pyro" (also known as Pyromoravia) in Czech Republic. Now I will just go trough all the type's of Delova Rana's that I'm aware of, at present time.

Delova Rana 50mm:

This little firecracker really packs a punch, It's loaded with 30g of high quality Flash Powder. The name is somewhat misleading, as this firecracker only has a diameter of 43mm. Designed by Privatex, this is a great cracker that really is worth the effort to get your hands on.


Name: Delova Rana 50mm
Diameter: 43mm
N.E.M: 30g Flash Powder
Price: 5 - 8 Euro's
Company: Privatex Pyro

This is the "big brother" of the 50mm Delova Rana from Privatex. This sucker packs a powerful punch, however the fuse is shorter than on the other Delova Rana's. And sometimes the walls and plugs of the firecracker isn't build well enough. This sometimes leads to a "PUFF" and a lot of smoke, but no real explosion. This cracker does usually have a little bit of titanium added to the Flash Powder composition. But often times it is to little, to even notice the titanium sparks. All in all a good product, that may need some modifications.

Name: Delova Rana "Profi" 50mm
Diameter: 50mm
N.E.M: 45g Flash Powder + Titanium
Price: 8 - 11 Euro's
Company: Profi Pyro / Pyromoravia

Delova Rana 75mm


http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-VKy6CJKPjK8/Tyqps85vlXI/AAAAAAAAAEw/pTAA6ERfJ6k/s1600/IMG_0349.JPG

New we're moving on to the really good stuff, this is the largest of the Delova Rana's that you can get your hands on, without much trouble. This bad boy contains 60g of powerful Flash Powder, and is usually way out of league, for most pyro's. This is a very well build product from Privatex, and I have fired approx. 20 of them. Without ever having any trouble. Needless to say, this is not the type of firecracker that you light in the middle of a town!

Name: Delova Rana 75mm
Diameter: 75mm
N.E.M: 60g Flash Powder
Price: 9-12 Euro's
Company: Privatex Pyro
Legality: Legal in Czech Republic, Slovakia.

Delova Rana 75mm
*DOUBLE POWER*


http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-PlsnBcMCbRo/TyqsNFkGgrI/AAAAAAAAAE4/8cfItE9FL1A/s1600/delova_rana_double_power_02.jpg

Now we're talking seriously dangerous stuff! Loaded with 120 grams of Flash Powder, this firecracker is not something that many people come by! As you can see in the picture above, this cracker has got the same diameter as the normal 75mm, but is a lot taller. People have made speculations that this particular firecracker might be a "fake". Meaning that it is not made by Privatex. I honestly don't know about that, but it might be true. I'm currently working on getting a couple of these, to test them out! Since I have never tried them before..

Name: Delova Rana 75mm *DOUBLE POWER*
Diameter: 75mm
N.E.M: 120g Flash Powder
Price: 12 - 20 Euro's
Company: Unknown
Legality: Unknown (Probably requires a permit)

This cracker is similar to Delova Rana Profi, the only exception being that this cracker comes without a fuse. You need some sort of firing system to fire it. The cracker has already been wired, making it easy for professionals who want's to start their show with some loud explosions. This cracker doesn't contain any titanium, like the other profi. To fire this item, you need a firing system, that puts out at least 12v.

Name: Delova Rana Profi "Electric"
Diameter: 50mm
N.E.M: 45g Flash Powder
Price: 9 - 12 Euro's
Company: Profi Pyro / Pyromoravia
Legality: Legal in Czech Republic, Slovakia, Italy & Poland (small permit required)

Delova Rana III
"Military Grade"


http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ywHyApkPWB8/TyqvpuZWw4I/AAAAAAAAAFQ/hCG3XEfrbu4/s1600/delobuch+nalezato-1.jpg

Now this is the military grade Delova Rana. This is in my opinion the most dangerous of all these crackers. Because people without any prior experience, doesn't know how to handle them. It has got the same amount of flash powder as the 50mm. Which isn't anywhere near the power of an actual mortar strike, but enough to create an ear cracking explosion with a lot of smoke.
The fuse differs from all the other Delova Rana's. It reminds me more of a spolette with match head prime, than an actual piece of time fuse. It has also got a VERY short delay, unlike the others.
So avoid this Delova Rana, unless you know how to use it.

Name: Delova Rana III
Diameter: 50mm
N.E.M: 45g Flash Powder
Price: 4 - 8 Euro's
Company: Zeveta Amminition
Legality: May only be used by Slovakian Military Personnel.
