I have stayed with regular spring terminals type slat, and bare wire end initiators. I have one 18M that has both quick plugs on cues 1-12, and mini...
If no rush, then by all means wait until the Black Friday sale. As stated previously, if you can justify the cost of the 72M, go with that and bundle...
I never did anything with model rockets, so can't speak to whether the igniters used for those are similar. I'm guessing not so much, as MJG Igniters...

Welcome aboard. $1000-1500 can out on a pretty decent show if you buying wholesale. Probably not so much buying retail at a roadside tent. The first...
If this was set off by removing e-match from a shell, it really brings home the risk associated with pyro products. I've never had to remove one I'd...
I'll daisy chain slats using DB25 cables, I just avoid using splices on the actual igniters. Have had minimal problems doing so, save for a bad DB25...
I've never used scotchlocks when wiring fireworks yet, as I like to operate on the assumption that the fewer splice points (or connectors) there are,...
Are you referring to the gel-filled insulation piercing type Scotch lock splices that used to be common on phone line and security system wiring? I'm...
I kind of like the cake fires, and use them to my advantage. I usually have a burn pile or burn barrel on site during the show, and will throw cakes...
Man, if that was staged, it was risky (and stupid) as hell. Blowing apart a running lawnmower not only presents the risk of shrapnel, but of spraying...
