You can use bright flake, I have some from hobbychem and seems to work ok but I have not compared with dark flake. The speed only depends on the particle size and shape, so that 5000 mesh dark aluminium is much better than the 625 mesh.
Depends what you want it for though, larger flake sizes give a brighter flash so are more suited to star cores, while smaller sizes will give louder reports.
Also can you please post in a topic as one already exists for flash powder, thanks.
