Has anyone ever used the Launch Kontrol system? Have seen it online for £20 and looks pretty good value for that.

Yeah I have it, it was on special offer in the January sales in Maplin a few years back so I picked the whole set up for £10.

It is good and was rather fun to be able to fire the fireworks as if its a professional show! Also great the way you can easily manage to light 2,3,4,5 fireworks at once.

But, the remote and base are sitting in a draw now as I cant really justify spending £12 for the e-clip (refill) when I paid less for the whole set. I have been meaning to buy some for a while now though but I end up putting it off as I think, its £10 extra worth of fireworks!

Hope that helps

Got myself the 25 carat barrage x 2 and one of the cyber boxes and i knew the manager from school 3 years above me so sweet talked him into bringing them out through the back door and still pay £20

don't know if i got the mix and match because i knew him but even so 3 x 25 carat barrages wouldn't have bothered me as these are primarly for the finale

May be worth waiting, for the last couple of years Sainsburys have had an offer on with the Saturday papers for £30 FREE worth of fireworks when you spend £15 on fireworks, bogof also worked with this deal!

Not certain that it will be on again this year, but I may hold on to see if they have it again, if they did I would probably buy,

Pay £15 for:
1x amber Fire -fountain mine- £8
1x pearl fountain- £5
2x giant sparklers
=£15
so then for free I could get

Jade Selection box- £20 bofof mix and match with Emerald lights-cake
2x amethyst shot tubes- £10

£45 worth for £15 worth of Fireworks

I hope this offer is on this year again as it will mean I can sort a selection box, a couple of extra roman candles and a nice fountain/ mine!
