If you're looking for a replacement for a pyrotechnic bear banger, you'll be disappointed. If you're looking for a reusable, slightly louder, and far more predictable alternative to those citric acid/baking soda bomb bags with the ability to throw BBs or 'smoke', this is for you.

I'm wondering if it's possible to increase the noise level by changing the thickness of the diaphragm. A lot of excess CO2 is vented from the device after deployment which could be used to pop a thicker cap. The delay would be longer but I think it would be worth it. I'll have to talk to the manufacturer and see if that's a possibility.
