I have been looking for a waterfall that has a strobe effect in it, does anyone know if these are available??


Strobing seems to need a drossy burning compound and the dross controls the strobing. If one were pointing downwards would the dross still form and control the strobing?

Would that be a normal waterfall with strobe flares sitting amongst the waterfall units, or are we talking about a waterfall with strobing microstars embedded instead of coarse metal?

Either way I like the idea of the effect...

I am talking about a waterfall in which you see strobing stars in the actual "fall", rather than a strobing flare type effect

Could this not be done with a few unchoked glitter fountains, would be a simpler method of achieving the effect. If you don't think that will do the trick I have some strobing microstar formulas I could post later.
You can never have a long enough fuse...

However as a cat 1 product they are expensive and only come by the box

There are a few Cat 3 waterfalls on the market this year- usually with about 30 indidivudal fountains!
OK, interest in fireworks to be resumed in the spring. It usually is. ;)

Essex Pyrotechnics used to do one as did Sandling. Kimbolton probably do too.

Here's one at Sandling, just over half way down.
