AustralianPyromaniac Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Strobe is such a sensitive effect, it may work, or it may work only on the ground but not in the air. The barium imparts a brilliant white that will be lost with potassium, and molecularly it gives less oxygen per gram of salt, so you may want to adjust based on that. My bet would be it will not work, it will burn white, but not strobe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Posted July 9 Share Posted July 9 Did you get that formula from a recognised expert source? Strobes are rare in commerce simply because they are hard to do, and harder to do well. Read Lancaster's book and use a published formula from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
