could be useful to simulate a shorting electrical cable, using a white or blue strobe composition

That guy posts a lot of videos on APC. Sometimes he specifies the composition, sometimes he doesn't.
Even when I'm wrong, I'm convincing.

I was disposing of some materials once and made up this little lance tube to burn away the material. I recall everything but what the formula was. It most certainly wasn’t meant to strobe though. Drives me crazy even today trying to recall what the original formula was or what it was suppose to be.

I did a lot of work on strobe effects creating a red/ purple/ yellow and a magenta and almost a blue, the effect is pretty simple to replicate, at some point I will put down on paper the formulas, I am working in conjunction with a member on PVB glitters that we hope to submit to AFN late summer I figure that the NC strobes may as well be put in as well anyway here is an old test on the NC red.
