Aerotech First Fire Igniters

The First Fire and First Fire Jr. Igniters from Aerotech are a 2-wire igniter that are designed for easy insertion into most all composite propellant motors. They can be used in place of the Copperhead™ igniter that comes with some Aerotech motors.

The "Jr" style have a smaller pyro-head so they can be fit into smaller composite motors, like the Econojets™.

The First Fire igniters come with long leads, giving you plenty of wire length to make hook-up fast and effortless with standard "micro-clips."

These igniters require 12V at a minimum of 3 amps of electricity -- a fully charged car battery works well.

Actual Customer Comment:
"I just wanted to thank you for running such a great site. It was with your components that I built my first self-designed rocket. A two-24mm cluster, 36'' long, BT-80 tube, basic 3-fin configuration. Flies like a dream and has given me more confidence on future rocket projects." -- Scott Joseph.
