AeroTech Interlock copperhead clip

[J Blatz]

Mine broke, and I should replace it.

Anybody got one or two they'd like to part with?

Just get two alligator clips and put tape on one side of each clip. Simple

I am familiar with that hack, but it is not near as reliable as using the clip IMO.

Ask Ken if he has one. If he doesn't let me know and I'll grab one from aerotech for you.

Use a lighter on the non-pyrogen end to separate the two layers. Then use ordinary alligator clips.

I'm with you on this, the clip is best. I get mine from Hobbylinc, but they are out of stock right now:

Somebody just broke mine dagnabbit! I loaned it to him and he broke off the springy tab in the middle. Errrggghh!

I think I have one in my supplies. I'll have to check when I get home tomorrow. PM me your address and I let you know if I have one and will send it to you.

Where are you getting copperhead igniters these days, or is it an old stash?

Sad state of affairs when you have to clarify the non-pyrogen end lol (not some kind of backdoor slant against the OP, I just thought it was funny)

I've got at least one you can have. If I don't see you soon I'll put it in the mail.

Old stash of them. I will not use them at an organized launch, but if I am out flying with my brother, I'll use them. I find the reliability to be decent, and I have 'em, so might as well use them.
