We had a Lucerne launch on Sunday.
100% copperhead success rate on the dozen or so that I was watching (or using myself).
There does seem to be a lot more pyrogen on the tips now - or am I just imagining that?

It's not the amount of pyrogen on the tip. It's does the pyrogen on the tip
light at all?

If you ever fire a Solar and a Tiger Tail side by side, you'll see how much
more enerjet-ic the Tiger tail is compared to the solar.

THe best tip for these ignitors is to duuble the voltage used with the. THe
Tiger Tails are very reliable at 12v. I'll bet the Copperheads work a lot
better at 24v too.
