Yeah used it a few times. Seems to work quite well, but for simplicity I still prefer PIC.

[chris17]

Yes. I used Pyroclock fuse for the first time last weekend. It seems to give accurate timing but I too prefer other fuses like Wasag and PIC. I think I will be using Pyroclock only when I'm hand-firing and need very precise timing.

iggy,

We use pyroclock a lot, especialy to save cues on 3" shells etc. Works great, quick and easy to use and timings are accurate. One piece of advice is to cable tye them to the side of a rack or something as they can blow apart as it burns from one section to another.

ah cool
we had some samples from festival fireworks last year but as they wernt useing it at the time i was rather dubious anyone remeber nomatch hehe

The_Djinn when seting the stuff off by ignitor in the vidio it show waht looks remarkbly like a davey bickford ignitor with the large plastic sheath at the top. whats your method with igniting these eletricaly or do you stick a bit of quick in first then ignitor that.

i think i have the latest pdf trade list from kimbolton if not is it poss to get 1 emailed to me had to reinstall the pc 2 weeks back:/ dam hard drive went up the swanny in a noise grinding crunching finale ( nasty power surge):/
ah well

Hi Iggy,

The method we use is to use a short section of quick with the ignitor inserted into that. I have heard of people putting the ignitor staight in but personally I think the quickmatch gives you that bit more confidence that it will light.

I am sure if you give the office a call, speak to Stuart and he can e-mail you the latest copy of the catalouge.

Does anyone else think this looks a bit fiddly? I still like PIC.

[Arthur Brown]

No! It's simply a plastics version of the classic spolette and brown paper.

Having seen Chinese made timers with time fuse and QM and buckets ready made, and with the decreasing cost and increasing use of digital timing, I wonder if there is a market for spolettes in heatshrink.

I hope that they will be marketed with EU classification.

Does anyone here still use traditional bucket delays?

Any tips to share?

yes, its like a spoletta, but with safety fuse. its very easy to use.

[spolettina]

Spolett.ina is not heatshrink. Is much flexible, but very hard to break. And its totally waterproof.

[spolettina]

it is an italian system like "Spoletta", but with new technology and material.
