First, I would like to say that the "Photon Grenade" made by
ehndblu is a pure stroke of genious. I find it fascinating and far more intelligent than most eggs on this site. Its a new concept. By myself, I have made alterations to this design. The design represented by ehndblu is crude yet also a beginning to better designs. There are a few problems with ehndblu’s Photon Grenade. When the firecracker explodes, it releases its light very quickly. The little light energy bounces off the walls and comes back. However, there is no more generation of energy to amplify the remaining light energy. This means that the light energy is not amplified but focused tougether. This causes a surge of light to burst out when the bulb is broken by the firecracker explosion. I have made alterations to this design. Instead of wrapping aluminium foil around a lightbulb, you can goto a mirror company. Ask them if they can get you a square container that is PERFERCTLY mirriored on the inside. The quality of the mirrios will have to be as close as the quality of a laser mirrior that you can get. I have noticed something. If you get a CD, there is always a small ring around in the middile of the CD. This thing is REALLY reflective. I can see my reflection in it better than I can in a mirrior. This could be used to line the inside walls of the container instead of mirrior. However, for now, just get the mirriored container. You will need to make a strobe mixture next. This can be found at various pyrotechnic websites. Its basically a pyrotechnic mixture that glows brightly on and off. What you need to do is pack the strobe mixture in a small cardboard box, about the size of a ciggarate pack. When this is to be used, light the strobe mixture and set it in the mirriored container. Seal the container and observe from a distance. What will ha#*@! that the strobe mixture will flash on and off. The light energy will reflect off the mirriored walls and continously build up. The gas from the burning of the strobe mixture will also build up. The container will eventually explode and a REALLY bright light will be released. More to come, and ALOT of thanks to ehndblu for the idea.
Thank you ehndblu.
