To update pyrotalk members, traffic on the website is heavy this time of year particularly late at night. Pyrotalk runs on a cloud server, it should be fine, load times may be a little slower than normal periodically. If for some reason the site shuts down, I will update a message on my youtube channel. I do not expect the site to go down but if it does I wanted to get this message out.

Fasten your seat belt boys, pyrotalk is running at Defcon 5 as July 4th approaches.LOL

I just upgraded the memory on the pyrotalk server. This will keep the site running and speed things up. For this to occur there will be a reboot. Pyrotalk and the forums will be down for approximately 15 minutes. I have this reboot scheduled to occur on 06/24/2016 at 4 AM EST. I will be sending an email to all pyrotalk members.

I have helped more people get ATF licensed than you can imagine. Many of these people are actually now working for fireworks companies and all of them are advancing deeper in to 1.3 fireworks and all that goes with that , firing systems, racks etc. I also have support from companies that advertise with me. Because of this support it allows me add more server resources to this website without hesitation. This website is not one of these $5.99 a month websites. Cloud servers, increases in memory , webmasters , software maintenance plans etc all cost big money. This is why I need more fireworks advertisers to become part of the site. I am in negotiations with a new one as we speak and hope to announce them soon. I am not sure what the number one selling fireworks video was before I came out with my ATF DVD package , but I can tell you it has become the number one selling fireworks video. Perhaps the release of the PassFire DVD may beat it. The reason is many people had a desire to do this but always thought it was out of reach. Regardless of how many I sell, its a good feeling for me to know I made a major impact on the fireworks enthusiast and industry.
