stored my mortar racks in a box truck. one year there was a roof leak and the mortars filled with water. now after a show i store them upside down like @salutecake does.

Made a manual tester + igniter board. Runs off 3 x AAA batteries.

Test current is 9ma.

I had a small production run of them made, if anyone wants to buy any. $10/ea.

using visual simulation software to script my show.

Wasn't able to find sheaths for pyro pokes so I made one.

I see several firing systems using the exact same Evergreen 120 case. Rhinofire and Mongoose.

I'm sure I've seen other products using it too.

looks like red apple erased american glory mortar shells from their website.

I'm seeing quite a few reports last night and today of red apple shells detonating inside mortar tubes or low breaks. Specifically american glory shells.

Like Engineer Cat I was shopping around and was comparing Firelinx and Firetek. I attempted to contact Firetek about some technical questions I had about their system and just got a snarky sarcastic...

As a firelinx owner I'm also disappointed. Killing OPN32 annoyed me, and now this? Completely bonkers.

pushin' up daisies from pyroland is my favorite 200g by far!

on a friend's farm in unincorporated county area.

recognized a bunch of those cakes, i used a bunch of the same ones this year too :)

I always store my tubes upside down, after having them fill with water from a leaky roof where they were stored!

The only reason to clean guns is to have shiny guns. Dirty guns wont affect...

should be able to roughly calculate it from the weight of the shell and the height it flies.

all my dr11 tubes are stapled and i have yet to have a bottom blow out from consumer mortar in ... 8...

when a uC that supports USB flashing costs $1.25 these days, it just underlines how archaic and outdated the cobra hardware looks compared to their competitors.

going to ask for a refund?

yeah, i bought one of the cheap chinese systems many years ago. they use simple On-Off keying and will get triggered by just about anything. i looked up the part# of the remote and it was a garage...

I did a design which uses a single cpc1706y SSR on highside and several uln2066b darlington arrays on lowside. Super simple and easy.

no duds. had a cake catch fire early and toast the fuse of a neighboring cake so it only partially fired.

Awesome idea, seems like it would save a lot of time!

page seems gone. error 404.

shoot is on this year.

Talon clips are extremely delicate and easy to break the filament. They also require a lot of current which many controllers aren't capable of providing reliably. I stopped using them after second...
