Estes Electric Match / Igniters

Electric matches, also called igniters, are pyrotechnic ignition devices that use a controlled electric current to heat a bridge wire and ignite a combustible composition at a precise moment. They are ideal for model rocketry, fireworks displays, theatrical effects, and other hobby projects where reliable remote ignition is needed.

These ignition leads require a specific firing current and low resistance to function properly, making them compatible with common firing systems and electronic controllers used in rocketry and display setups.
