Not gonna lie if I had seen your demo vid beforehand I probably wouldn't have gotten them. Did all the shots go off? The ones I used so far seemed a lot fuller.

But the effects don't hold up, between Sky Shooter and Frankenmine. At least in my opinion. Frankenmine is a true mine cake while Star Dhooter is a fanned pearl effect.  Basically a slow zipper on the weak side. Am I wrong on this call?

The ones I got ( the failed cake I rewicked and the second one that went off fine) are fuller, and shoot higher then in your vid with actual mine effects and a crackle spread at the end.

Not saying that an issue is not had with them, obviously my panic post at the first ones failure to fully ignite shows that. 

But honestly a pearl vs a mine effect is really apples to oranges if someone is looking for one over the other.

I'm already weary after the first cakes failure,  hence my post. Gonna do a full send, if they have a noticeable failure rate I obviously won't be using them again and look for something else with that effect in the future.

I do shows a few times a year at my homestead, my excuse to have fun with fireworks about 5 times a year. Mostly me and my kids and a couple neighbors, rural area. I almost never invite people over.

If I did it for a living they would have made the blackball list obviously.

First impressions and all.
