For some reason this ended up in my Spam folder. To currently obtain the Articles of Pyrotechnic education certificate you need to own one of the three professional fireworks firing systems listed . When a fireworks enthusiast purchases the program I contact the distributor database with you name etc to verify the applicant owns/purchased the listed system. Here is link to my website that explains the program in detail.

Good evening,
I was having a bit of trouble locating the approved firing systems for you course. If you could direct me to a list I would appreciate it.
Thank you,

David,
Thank you. Now that the holiday has gone off successfully. I think it’s a better time to get planning.
I have been fusing my whole show together for a number of years now and have been looking for an upgrade. I noticed the firetek system seems like the most economical option, but probably a bit overkill for my twice yearly show. I had done some research on ignite, one of your other sponsors and think that might be a bit more appropriate and updated as far as functionality. While I would like to be able to order the articles of pyrotechnics, I know you do not offer your regular AP certification without one of the three approved units. Is there a way to purchase your course without one of the firing units? Just hoping to add a bit of safety and functionality to my consumer grade show next year. Is there any other safety course you recommend?

Yes you do need one of the three listed professional firing systems for the Articles of Pyrotechnic education program. From the little bit you are telling me maybe you just need a firing system in general irrespective of the Articles of Pyrotechnics. Introduce yourself to a firing system in general to step away from long fusing. Then once you discover the world of electrical firing with what you are currently purchasing every year, then you can further define what type of higher end system you want.. Experiment with some of the inexpensive systems you typically find on EBay or Amazon.

Hey Dave,
I started watching your videos a couple years ago and have learned a lot from you. I appreciate that there are guys like you out there helping others like me come up through the pyro levels.
I’m on my 5th annual 4th of July show and am making some leaps this year. Out of consumer and OL fireworks and into Articles (1.4 pro) and I’d like to see if there’s time this year to get to 1.3/ ATF licensed.
I’ve been practicing scripts with my Cobra and recently completed your Articles of pyro course.
I’m looking forward to a fun summer.
I just ordered your DVD package for the ATF licensing to purchase 1.3. And will dive in when it arrives.
I am in southern XXXXXXX and wanted to just make sure this will work for me and ask if there was any additional information you might pass on.
Sincerely Thank you for what you do. It’s awesome.

Hi Dave! I have followed you online for a couple of years now and have been shooting large 1.4 neighborhood shows for about 6 years now. I have been successfully using a ebay firing system the last few years and have a friend who is a PGI member that has taught me a lot about 1.4 pro and 1.3 products. Anyways.... I'm looking to expand my knowledge and skills, and put on bigger and better shows. I'm looking at your certificate course and have a question about Cobra firing systems. I am familiar with them as my friend in PGI has one, and have an opportunity to buy a pre owned system. How can I go about getting that system verified with you to be able to get the 1.4 pro certificate?
Thank you

When you have it in your possession I'll tell you how we will do it. If it buy one used you need at least one remote and one module a complete system.. Let me know when you receive . Sorry for delay responding have been busy.

Hey Dave
Scott Smith might have my info under XXX XXX@gmail.com. But I have 29 modules and counting and have been doing shows for almost 2 decades now ha ha. I actually just ran into someone for the first time that actually asked for a certificate so hopefully we can have one before Monday. Fingers crossed.
Thanks sir.
I can send you some of my pyromusical displays if you’d like as well

Hi Dave XXXX XXXX from south central XXXXX, Well there comes a time when we have to hang up our Cobra system and say time to quit. Turning XX next month and the XXXXXX weather is getting the best of me. I got to fullfill a childhood dream of becoming a licensed pyro technicion for the last 12 years.I just want to thank you for your contribution to this great hobby and all all your videos that have helped me and countless others to improve our skills. Thank you again and God Bless and and keep you in good health.
Sincerely XXXXX XXXX

Thanks XXXXXX , I appreciate that nice feedback. It is nice for me to hear my videos had a positive effect in helping others like yourself enjoy the fireworks hobby. Maybe you will give up the Cobra but don't give up hand lighting a few products from time to time. Wishing you the best of health also.

Feedback from a recent order of my Articles of Pyrotechnic education certificate. And yes, as a fireworks enthusiast advances into more Cobra modules and larger displays over the years, setting up shows with Articles of Pyrotechnic products makes it easier and much faster because of the E-Fire ports. Further, most of these AP products include information like duration and performance. Useful to those that choreograph displays .
.

Hi Dave,
I have attached PDF files of my order history with Cobra going back to 2017, (which is as far back as their order history goes) along with one showing my most recent order of 2 72M firing modules from 5/13/24. I bought my first Cobra 18R2 and 18M's in, I believe 2012 and have been buying more ever since. At this point I have the following:
Cobra Control Center
Cobra Control Panel
Cobra Show Creator
8 72M Firing Modules setup for parallel slats
8 18M Firing Modules
12 6M SPFX Modules
Audio Box
And much more...
Currently I spend weeks pulling out visco fuses and replacing them with fast fuse. 1.4 Pro would save me a tremendous amount of setup time. ..................

Advancing from Manual Firing of fireworks to a Cobra and wireless electrical firing.
From purchasing my Manual Fire Articles of Pyrotechnic education program in January 2025 to a new Cobra with multiple module user. If anyone purchases my Articles of Pyrotechnic Manual Fire education certificate program and within six months then purchases a Cobra or Ignite system, I upgrade their certificate to the next level of user at no additional charge, This has happened multiple times. Here is a recent example. The hope is once a fireworks user understands how all of this functions through education, they will want to move into the world of wireless electrical firing.
.

Good afternoon!
I got a manual firing certificate from you not a long time ago and have been learning more and reading more about 1.4 pro and just upgraded my system to three 18m and a 18r2 from Cobra and was wondering if i could upgraded my certification to the next level as you said above? If you need anything from me don't hesitate to ask and ill send it over!
Thanks, XXXXXXX
,
.

Sure give me your full name address and email. I need to send to Cobra to verify you own at least one module and one remote. Ill get it to you tonight. I need my home computer for the database. Or attach a receipt. No charge for reminder of time since you made the purchase within six months of the Manual Fire Certificate.
.
.
.
Take your time, no rush from me!
XXXX XXXX the address it was shipped to was XXXXX XXXXXXX email was the same: XXXXXXXXX @gmail.com
I was able to attach the invoice from them to here too!
Thanks, xxxxxxx
.
.

XXXXXXX. Email the new certificate to where you want to purchase from the list so they can start a file on you. It ends where your original certificate ends. Once you use that Cobra you will be glad you purchased it. No additional charge. See attached new certificate If there are any issues the distributor can verify the education certificate with me at any time.

Hello Dave,
I have recently come across pyrotalk.com. Thanks for all the videos you share. I am a true pyro at heart and have enjoyed putting together amateur consumer firework shows for many years. I am interested in taking it to the next level and will be purchasing an Ignite firing system. In addition to the experience listed above, I was a setup person for two professional fireworks shows in XXXXX XXXXXX. My duties entailed loading launch tubes and wiring the igniters into a Cobra system. We were trained on the proper handling of fireworks. We worked with shells up to 5".
I would like to sign up for your training and certification course on the Ignite system. XXXXX XXXX
