Featuring Fans

There are a couple of different types of firework cake the first is the Vertical which means that the firework fires straight up into the air.

The second and the one being featured today is the Fan effect barrage. Coming in a number of different sizes, they range from around £7.45 to £85.00 with different effects but still sticking to the fanned principal.

I will detail three today which represent slow, medium and fast paced fan barrages which are our biggest sellers and are regularly incorporated into our DIY packs.

Imperial Invasion - The Stats

Shots: 250

Duration: 2 minutes and 25 seconds

Noise rating: 7/10

One of the longest lasting barrages in the UK, this is a magnificent piece which many include in their displays because of this.

Featuring some amazing sound effects and a stunning finale, it really has to be seen first hand to appreciate its beauty.

Beginning with pulse fired crackling tailed comets and whistles, it quickly moves onto spinning red peonies then fanned crackling red stars, before unleashing the hilarious sounds of the three-stage wolf whistle which is accompanied by fizzing darting stars with dancing glitter emitting more red peonies.

This whole process is repeated and is then completed with an astonishing launch of massive sky filling mine pots. Insane! This is simply superb pyrotechnics.

The Brick - The Stats

Shots: 107

Duration: 1 minute 25 seconds

Noise rating: 7/10

The Brick has 107 shots fired quickly and loudly with a superb mixture of effects.

Starting with loud bursting red peonies, blue stars and silver glitter this moves onto a lovely fanned section with red and green comets with silver tiger tails fired six at a time giving a beautiful spread across the sky.

This rapidly proceeds to whistle spinning silver stars with loud breaks into red and green peonies and silver chrysanthemums. Another fanned section of green and silver leads onto a rapidly fired finale of crackling stars, huge silver spinners and very loud pink and blue peonies.

The Brick lasts for about 1 minute 25 seconds and with this many effects is absolutely brilliant value for money and a fabulous middle section display piece which has pride of place in our majestic Giant and Ultimate Bonfire DIY display packs.

Awaken - The Stats:

Shots: 100

Duration: 35 seconds

Noise rating: 9/10

The loudest of the fanned barrages is the Awaken from Epic Fireworks. This fast-firing super loud beauty is a finale firework which is a must for any show. The Awaken is so popular that we have included it in our new pack ‘Rebellion’ at £695.00 including VAT.

The huge Awaken single ignition firework is quickly becoming one of our best sellers. It starts with massive banks of golden palms with red tipped tails and volleys of crackling palms screeching skywards. Without any pauses, this turns into multi-level palm breaks with green falling stars that twinkle as they descend before the finale of spinning screeching comets and very loud reports and dragons eggs.

Fast and furious with huge effects, this is simply superb and a guaranteed crowd pleaser.

So, if you are looking for a fabulous fan effect which will be the envy of everyone and a talking piece for months to come, look no further than Epic Fireworks.
