Hey fellow-Pyros,
The pyro-musical thing is growing and the importance of knowing the timing of items is extremely important. That said, I'm having a heck of a time getting solid info from Hopkey on some Flower Basket KLS cakes. Specifically the KLS-18 100 shot colorful salute cake which believe I 1.25" bore or 1.50" bore. Any suggestions?

Actually while we're at it how about the timing of Thunderbird TB100-139Z and TB100-158Z

So Nobody can help me with this? There's got to be a way to get the manufacturing specs on these Flower Basket cakes? Somewhere they must categorize size, color, effect and would think duration...

I'm suprised shooting for American Thunder you dont have that information. I know they use/have KLS cakes. We shot some at an NHPA event.. both were 100 shot KLS colorful salute.. probably 1" 1/2 bore...I'd say the timing was 18-20 sec

Just checked video from the NHPA spring... thinking the opener was 3 of these 100 s color salute cakes. Nope, looks like it was 3 - 100s brocades at 30 seconds. Warren would know?

Mike.. the 3 cakes we started out with @ Warren were 49 shot gold brocades. I would think Warren from AT would know or Rob. But I shot two of these at Deerfield a yr ago and the timing was about 18-20sec

Regardless the 3- 49 shot brocades were awesome. Just thought I'd look into past videos.

The problem is there seems to be two different version of the KLS-18 and even Warren doesn't know how to tell them apart. He was my first call. See we ordered 10 and (2) have shot at about 20-24 sec and (1) shot in about 10-12 sec. Exact same labeling and construction. Very weird for sure. Maybe it was a manufacturing defect or something.

Normally I'd agree, Warren would know, but he was my first call and we couldn't figure it out. We think it may have been defective because (2) shot in 20-25sec time frame while (1) shot in about 10 sec. Exact same cake, same manufacturing date and shift code. Weird

I had donated those opening 49 shot gold brocades as part of the clubs saturday show for warren, NH. I've seen so many different salute cakes while shooting w Bay and although most are FK 150's Salute I have to say the Lidu 25 shot 2.5" w tails ( 4sec ) are my favorite
