well how on earth does a re usable squib work allowing it to be fired up to 200 times ????
 
it appears to have something to do with pulses of electricity,
and using hydroxyl ammonium nitrate and poly vinyl alcohol
 
check the details out below

VERY UNUSUAL

ah,
 
this seems to be the key
 
..................................The S-HAN-5 is conductive and exhibits pyroelectric
behavior (generating heat when subjected to an
electric current) in the propellant.

 

how do I attach a pdf ???
 

[whoof]

you cant.

have to use something like photobucket and link to it

 

use 200 times.

 

yes but once opened use within 24 hours, its hygroscopic.

 

not said but I suspect this requires high voltage discharge to fire it
