That looks like a bucket-full-of-awesome right there!!!

McCrea February 6th, 2013 07:58

Yeah these are the Enola Gaye Grenades

Hectic February 6th, 2013 09:52

i use the tactical ones they sell but color will be nice

K3vX February 6th, 2013 10:01

What's the difference between the "TACTICAL SMOKE GRENADE" at 12.50$ and the "WIRE-PULL SMOKE: X COLOR" at 9.00$ ?

Both are cold burn.

McCrea February 6th, 2013 10:03

Different companies, different product, different price ;)

Hectic February 6th, 2013 10:08

and the tactical ones have 25000cu ft the new ones in different colors are 20000 in the same 2 minut burn time. Also as i remember ud likely not want to hold onto the tactcal ones they do get prety hot to the touch.
theese new ones are nice i was just sayin i had used the old ones befor and they work well.
the battlefield ones are 22 and change and they produce 70000 cu ft. Over 3 min burn

M.Garcia February 6th, 2013 10:34

Love throwing smoke lol. Just wish they weren't so expensive for something that lasts 5 minutes.. :\. Then again, we spend money for BBs which are kinda the same thing.. lol.

K3vX February 6th, 2013 10:37

Might get a colored one for shits and giggles.

Colin_S February 6th, 2013 10:40

Just don't use orange smoke anywhere near water, that's a maritime emergency colour.

That's good to know... anything else I should know before doing a big mistake?

I'm not an expert at smoke, learnt the orange smoke thing a few years ago and just wanted others to be aware of it. :)

Danke February 6th, 2013 10:50

You should also know "cold smoke" usually just means no open flame. They still get hot enough to blister the paint and will start a fire if you drop it in dry brush.

Hectic February 6th, 2013 11:31

yup thats the truth tho ill say by the looks of theese ones they seem alot safer then the old style ones, they dont seem to shoot large sparks or even flame out the top like the old style ones do.
ill test them this weekend maybe if i have time to pic some up.
they seem to have a cover on the top with a small hole for the smoke to escape as oppsed to the other style that sort of just burn from the top down within the tube. The old ones wer fine if you sat em upright but if you toss em youd have to be carefull where you wer throwin to. Theese hopefully will be safer for throwing if you can actually hold em in yer hand through a full burn off.

Berkut February 6th, 2013 11:34

Strange... I always thought that colored smoke was a no no for civvie use (without pyro license).

Cool beans though.

Out here we have a rule of "don't pick it up and throw it back" because it's pretty unsafe to handle once ignited. They can kick it a few feet if it poses a threat. Also, it's shitty to have your $10-20 pyro just nullified on a whim.

Also be careful where you throw it. I had one go 30 feet out, bounce off of the one tree in front of me and land directly back in my hands. Had I not been wearing good gloves, that could have sucked tremendously for me.

Akhéron Sombre February 6th, 2013 12:04

In a test, we tried to set fire with a cold burning smoke and we didn't get any flame, even a small one. Is it theorical they can set fire or someone really succeded to do it ?

Metalsynth February 6th, 2013 18:22

It was mid summer on the dry grass and we even put dry news paper under it.

The paper and grass did'nt catch fire, it just got ''black rubberized''.

2 of us + 4 witnesses.

If someone has proof of it setting fire to something, I'd like to see that for myself because I dont beleive it.

The only thing that will happen is that it will get pretty hot so if something has a weak ignition temperature it might but like I said, we made that proof ourselves.

Danke February 6th, 2013 18:54

Guys ignition hazard depends on how dry your brush is. Out here you can start a fire if you park a car in the tall grass along with other day to day activities.

It is hot and sunny all day with zero humidity in the summer time at most of the local fields so the fire hazard is in the red for months.

Akhéron Sombre February 6th, 2013 18:59

During our test, woods and grass was very dry and it was sunny and hot. As said, we used paper too and no fire start. It is why we asked if someone have seen with his own eyes, a fire started because a cold burning smoke.

Hectic February 6th, 2013 19:13

it would also depend on what brand of smoke nade u tested like i said earlyer those tactical omes they carry get too hot to hold where as in the video you see the guy hold it a good long time, i also had some that i got off of ebay befor, they wer cool to hold till about half way through the 90sec burn time but they shot out a flame/spark like a road flare or a roman candle does, it was winter time so setting fire wasnt an issue but i wouldnt wanna use those ones in the summer or fall for sure theyd ignite brush.
all of theese smoke nades will burn differently and have different designs so some will be safer then others

Danke February 6th, 2013 19:13

I have seen many fires started with smoke grenades.

Akhéron Sombre February 6th, 2013 19:15

It was this one : http://www.rocketfireworks.ca/smokegrenade-tsg.html TACTICAL SMOKE GRENADE

Hectic February 6th, 2013 19:28

well those ones arent too bad most of the time but if you face the opening that the smoke comes from toward somthin flamable it can catch fire, and the ebay ones i got almost looked the same just with no lable on the outside and they would catch fire on their own the cardboard tube they are in.
these new ones seem they burn colder then any ive used tho i cant confirm this till i get my grubby hands on em and test but they look promising in the video.
just be extra carefull useing any pyro especially near dry tall grass, loads of fallen leaves on the ground, and pine or cedar needles as they are naturally flameable due to their oils and so is birch bark extra flameable even in the wet and rain

And this is exactly what we did + dry news paper with the brand specified before.

And BTW, we dont recommend using other brands or real ones for that matter because they get way hotter than these.

And now for the ''coup the grâce'' because I knew you guys were spetics :

Got this from here : www.sportsmoke.com

Smoke grenade test - YouTube

Hurrah for auto music scoring!

Put it in 720p

Sorry for the crappy video, had some nice shooters with us that day ;)

Danke February 6th, 2013 20:28

We are in a different time zone so that may explain a couple of strange things you are seeing and hearing, kinda like a parrallel universe but more in the east ;)

Danke February 6th, 2013 20:48

Spoiler Alert!

If the grass is green it's alive. If it's alive it's not dry, and the ground isn't dry either.

Akhéron Sombre February 6th, 2013 21:03

We didnt care about the fresh grass. We put dry woods and dry paper to set fire.

Spawn28 February 6th, 2013 21:08

I too have set one with a cold burning smoke it was really dry and I didn't hang on to it long enuff when it hit some smoldering cold smoke chunks came out the smoke hole and ignited the dead grass on the roadside, damn good thing a teamate was two feet away to stomp it out. And it was a tactical smoke grenade weather it was a fluke or not who knows but I've seen it and caused it.

Juic3 February 6th, 2013 21:15

We have temperature gun at the job. Ill buy a nade and take a reading of the nade while it burn off and give you a lil report. If there is a spark ill tell also.

Redneck Jimbo February 6th, 2013 22:16

The sight says 40mmX130mm at 120g. If someone has the oppertunity to test the Enola Gay pull pin smokes with a gernade launcher could you post your results here? especaly results with diffrent types of shells, fit or mods requierd.
