hi,

I just made a lot of stars based on lithium carbonate.

I replaced strontium with lithium.

I find the color beautiful.

here is the formula I use:

Potassium chlorate 70

Lithium carbonate 15

redgum 10

charcoal 1

dextrin 4

I know that stars with chlorates should not be in contact with sulfur. I ask myself how to use sulfur-free meals.

 

I could use the h3 for the bursting charge. But for safety I prefer an insulating layer. I could use a load-based black powder in this way

I find it a bit pinkish, but I have also made stars with lithium carbonate. I think it's pretty OK at low temperatures.

I dusted these stars with the following composition:

 

kno3 35

charcoal 25

kclo4 35

dextrin 5

I just tried a new formula changed to lithium carbonate. It is of purple stars: Here is the video with the composition

The end looked very purple. I've always been pretty critical of lithium stars, but they looked good. If you ever try them in the air, I'd be interested.

I stressed on the UKPS board already a couple of years ago that you can use lithium instead of strontium in purple stars and have a very good result. Lithium on its own is a bit harder.

on the last shot of this StarMine. The purple stars. is unclear, I will try in a shell.
