    I always put on a hardhat goggles and gloves when displaying with Cat3 25m fireworks;risk of burns from debris to the head from aerial fireworks,eyes are at risk from sparks and debris, and fizzing from fuses can burn hands. It's worth considering with Cat3 25m fireworks.

    Yeah I suppose it can be worth it just in case of an accident. I always try and make sure I get back to where the spectators are though before it fires as we usually only have a small audience so no need for me to stay in the firing area.

    "if it was flash it wouldnt have been in the fuse cap as rocket motors are never made up of flash"

    I know this, where did i say it was?

    "and you said about he would of been blinded for 10 mins if he lit flash well if it was flash it would of exploded when he touched it as flash will explode off a fraction of static"

    It is unlikely to explode when you touch it, there is more friction used when it is made, who told you this?
    as for the bang, it entirely depends on the composition, and quality of the chemicals.
    Some will make a large !!!!!!, and incredibly bright flash. others will make a bang noise, when uncontained.

    make some yourself,with lab grade Aluminium powder and stare directly into 10g going off outside, then tell me im wrong.(dont blame me if you damge your eyes permenantly)

    Im not trying to insult you but cat 3 training simply educates you on the use of consumer fireworks. it in MY opinion that doesnt make you an expert.

    I think you should spellcheck before you post, i had a hard time reading it.
    i didnt have no trouble reading what he said cant really see why you did was it a late night?

  • well i look forward to seeing the video and i hope you enjoy your fireworks i only say as banter i know you are not rich you said before you buy little and offten i think next year i am going for more cakes and shot tubes as i think you get more for your money from shot tubes than rockets but saying that shot tubes aint as big as rockets but if you get the right ones they are still very loud sothink it is shoot tubes next year what do you think?
  • As it's my first post thought i'd better say hello :wave:

    Just wanted to recommend Gemini rockets I bought a 9pk today and although they aren't the cheapest at £20, they are by far the best i've personally had for that price. We couldn't resist testing them, and tried one of the smallest of the pack. Was pleasantly surprised at just how good they were. I've previously wasted loads of money on inferior rockets and got more of a "pfffffffft . . . . . . ." and that about it lol. This one was rather loud and very colourful :T
