EN: FCG-B20A "Kugelblitz Kal. A Silber", Crackling balls with silver sparks, 2g NEC, CE Category F1
Crackling balls with silver sparks crackling stars inside, 6 pieces per pack, 12 packs per display box.
Here can be seen our attempt of the classic small crackling balls in category F1. Sadly nowadays, most companies use pressed crackling comets inside the plastic balls, and no losen crackling stars wrapped into paper anymore, because like this it´s much faster and cheaper in production. But also, because of this the item doesn´t really make sense anymore, because it is typical for real crackling balls to throw out all the crackling stars at once, whereas the the pressed crackling comets burn within 1-2 seconds and just eject some crackling microstars. Also these pressed comets don´t even need the plastic balls around, but could also be sold without it, which makes the whole thing especially unnecessary. Anyways, our "Kugelblitz" are still filled the traditional way with losen crackling stars. The effect is also quite fine, but ofcourse we had to reduce the sound a little for category F1 and use more fine titanium for shorter flying sparks. Also I have the feeling, that the factory mixed some stars without titanium sparks amongst the crackling stars in order to save money, but I only noticed it a few days ago while shooting the item again (a few delayed crackling stars didn´t have sparks), so I learned a new trick of the factories once more which I need to pay attention to.. Attention! On wet surface, many of the crackling stars stop burning / don´t function, so make sure to use the item on dry surface only!
