Fireworks are a great way to have fun during holidays and special celebrations. Everybody enjoys a good sparkler and firecracker show, however, not many people know much about the topic. For this reason, many people don't know exactly what to pick when they go shopping for fireworks. Here you will learn about five of the most popular fireworks.
Sparklers
These are thin sticks that you hold in your hand while the tip burns and sparkles. There are two kinds: Morning Glory and metal rod. Generally, Morning Glories have three phases; the first one lasts about 20 seconds and has a red flame, the second phase consists of about 20 seconds of crackling, and then the last phase is another 20 seconds of green or white flame. On the other hand, metal rods have only one phase that gives gold or silver sparkles. They are fairly cheap at less than a dollar per package.
Roman Candles
Roman candles fire one shot at a time from a tube. The shots can be as simple as a color star or more complex elements that flash, crackle, explode, or even whistle. Also, if the diameter of the tube is larger, then the effects are also bigger. Some Roman candles can even able to achieve small aerial effects.
Wheels
When you light a wheel, it spins around its center and you'll see sparkles, whistles, and crackles at the same time. Wheels spin very fast, so you will see the incredible visual effect of a circle of fire. In addition, the wheel should be attached to a vertical support in order for it to work properly.
Aerial Shells
In order for this setup to work, you'll need a re-loadable kit. The kit usually contains one or two tubes and shells. The number of shells will vary depending on the type of kit you're buying, but it can be anywhere from six to a hundred shells. The way the aerial shells work is by igniting and propelling the shell into the air. Once it's in the air, the shell will burst and show incredible patterns of colors and lights. The visual effects are fantastic! That's why aerial shells are so popular. When it comes to cost for this type of firework, it will depend on the size of the kit and number of shells. A very simple one with a small amount of shells will cost around $8 to $15; a medium-sized kit can cost around $30; and a larger assortment can cost up to $200.
