All, I spent almost a year perfecting my July 4th show on my ignite modules. I dry ran my show the day before as suggested by the ignite team. Set up was flawless. I was done with the set up entirely by around 3 pm and finally got to have some family time with everyone. Show time arrived and I fired my modules up, and started my show like I always do. Cue one passed, no fireworks. Cue 2, nothing. Cues 3-6…nothing. I stop the show, double check everything, and run another check on continuity and everything is green. Tried firing again and nothing whatsoever. I am embarrassed, furious, sad, and completely heartbroken. I’ve reached out to ignite but I haven’t gotten a response. Has anyone here run into this before? What on earth happened. This was every pyro’s worst nightmare come true for me and I can’t figure out what went wrong.

Everyone, I have figured it out. I used scotch lock connectors to secure my igniters. I can’t understand why I got continuity readings entirely while at the same time nothing fired, but after my wife and I ran multiple tests this morning, those connectors are 100% the issue. Those of you who are looking into trying these, DO NOT USE THESE CONNECTORS! We tried several different ways of inserting the wires into the connectors during our tests and they would never work. Hopefully this will help someone who is researching ways to connect igniters or streamline the process.
