Testing of an 11" Casing, 1/2" Bore, 3/8" Nozzle. Complete Success.

Ignition time was longer than anticipated and might need adaptation for a faster complete bore ignition.

In the slow motion portion of the video you can see that the igniter appears to be partially inhibiting bore ignition and when enough pressure builds up the igniter ejects and complete bore ignition occurs.
