I'm a little confused about how the general consensus is that a 12V launch controller is needed to start the L1+ APCP motors. I'm only at mid-power level now and reading up a ton on HRP while getting ready to build my L1 certification rocket, so I'll profess ignorance here. The igniters I have are simple e-matches that I dipped in Quickdip pyrogen to give a nice, hot, long burn.

When performing tests, these ematches seem to ignite just fine using my 3 and 6V ignition boxes. If these ignite, I'm not sure why they wouldn't start one of my CTI 38mm or 54mm motors.
Can someone enlighten me? Thanks!
