pyroman2498 Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I think he is talking about strobe , the frequency ( how man times ) it strobes ? Stay Safe and Stay Green ~Steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrB Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 I have a feeling this is mostly a robot translation, and that is, as usual a crappy translation.I'm just guessing here, but i think he's Russian? Perhaps someone who can help him, at least to get a proper translation out. I cant even make sense of the formula he posted...(Which however might be more a lack of experience with strobes on my part, then anything else. Does anyone recognize the formula?) B!

skid68 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Changing the mesh size of the magnalium will change the strobe rate, or frequency. The bigger the flakes, the slower the strobe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gregh Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Changing the CuO amount will also affect the strobe rate. I am not familiar with that particular formula so I cannot say what it's rate may be. Shimizu's AP strobes are the only ones I have commonly seen a frequency published for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titanium Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Stibiums Strobe formula works also nice to make a red Strobe(http://www.amateurpyro.com/forums/topic/3886-red-nitrate-strobes/page-3), I interchanged NC for Dextrin and it also works nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

asdercks Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 best way to find out would be to make a small test batch and light it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
