Can I use a model rocket launch controller to set off fire crackers? Any info would be great. Thank you.?

Question

Update:

Ok im trying to make a suicide bomber belt for halloween but I want to get 4 m-60's and use a model rocket launch controller so they go off instantly.

Answer 1

if you are talking about the esters launch controllers you could tape the igniter the the fuse press the button and hey presto!

BANG!  

Answer 2

a model rocket launcher runs an electric current through nichrome (NiCr) wire to ignite the solid propellant.  i suppose you could use one to light fuses, but it's an overkill.

you'd also probably destroy the launch pad.  that's designed to deflect a momentary thrust blast, but not an explosion.

Answer 3

get steel wool and roll two 2" strands in the shape of a long thin strip...try and roll it in your fingers so it's as thin as possible. then take the two pieces and twist the end together to make a Y shape.  you can wrap the twisted end around the fuse of the firecrackers and if needed, wrap a piece of scotch tape around it to hold it snug.  then you can attatch the alligator clips to the other ends of the the Y shape you made.  when you hit the button, the steel wool will ignite, and light the fuse. enjoy.
