Will be buying some of those C14's, but wish they were BP so we could have a booster motor.
What I really want is the B14-0

Thanks Roger and Jason....Black Max. Maybe I'll remember it now!
Easy to light is good. If they'd used White Lightning I'd wonder what the ...... they were thinking. Much better choice here. For W motors there will, I presume, still be the Aerotech-labeled D10s. Roger, do you plan to carry them when they ship?

There's no reason why they couldn't make a C14-1 (or maybe -0.5 or -0.75, instead of -1) motor, which could ignite black powder upper stage motors (or even other Black Max composite motors, if an Apogee Components-type "staging igniter"--a short length of green Visco fuse, inserted into the upper stage nozzle--was used).

Unfortunately we can't get thermalite or quick-match any longer without some cockamamie BATFE permit. That is how the old Enerjet motors were staged and/or clustered.

Too big for what? You haven't specified booster size, or what this rambling thread is specifically trying to achieve. The PerfectFlite micro timer fits in a BT-20 tube. Certainly small enough for even a small scale Nike booster. They might not work in a small booster, like an Estes Avenger. But then who cares? Use a B6-0 or C6-0.
