I MADE A VERY SIMPLE HOMEMADE FIRING SYSTEM OUT OF A SMALL PLASTIC ORANIZER, 9 VOLT BATTERY A 30FT LONG OF 18AWG. LAMPCORD AND 2 SINGLE POLE - SINGLE THROW 12 VOLT CAR / AUTOMOTIVE SWITCHES. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK OF THE SYSTEM AS THIS WAS ABOUT 7 OR 8 YEARS AGO AND WAS MY VERY FIRST HOMEMADE FIRING SYSTEM. 1 SWITCH WAS FOR POWER / SAFTEY AND THE OTHER WAS THE FIRE SWITCH / BUTTON. THE 2 SWITCHES WHERE WIRED IN SEIRES FROM THE BATTERY OF COMMON GROUND FROM THE BATTERY TO 1 WIRE TO LAMP CORD THAT LEAD TO THE FIREWORKS AND THE HOT WAS BATTERY + TO FIRST SWITCH AS POWER - SAFTEY THEN TO THE FIRE SWITCH. FROM THE FIRE SWITCH THE HOT / + WHEN TO THE LAST WIRE ON THE LAMP CORD. LAST THE LAMP CORD WHEN 30 FEET TO WHERE THE TAOLON / EMTATCH OR MJG - FIREWIRE/IMATCH IGNIGHTERS GO. IM SHARING THIS INFO TO HELP OTHERS WHO MAY NEED A SINGLE CUE WIRED SYSTEM FOR THE FOUTH DUE TO PLACES BEING SOLD OUT CUZ OF THE 4TH BEING ONLY A WEEK AND 1 DAY AWAY FROM AS I AM TYPEING THIS POST. ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE FEEL FREE TO ASK AND OR EMAIL ME. THANKS.

I appreciate the ingenuity but for a one cue firing system all you need is a 9v battery. With little or no more effort you can make a nail board firing system and have multiple cues:
