does anyone know where i can buy igniters that would ignite the second stage of my rocket. the electrical system is a simple mercury switch and a capacitor i ripped out of a camera flash. the capacitor is charged using the camera's flash charger (the kind that makes that buzzing sound as it charges).
ive tried making my own igniters using a strand of steel wool and black powder. they worked great but very unreliable. flashbulbs are also out of the question because theyre virtually impossible to find (i found some once but they were horribly expensive).
any ideas/links are greatly appreciated
