Given how hard sparklers are to light at the best of times, I didn't hold out much hope of being able to light one with a 10 ohm resistor being smoked deliberately with 12V. But it worked!
(Note the use of a traditional quarter watt, 10 ohm carbon film resistor. These burn better than metal film ones.)

Thankyou. Prehaps just thinner wire coiled around would have done the same? What was the amps?
Amps?
Funny, this video is over a decade old and I find out that you can actually light a sparkler with a resistor. I didn't think using a resistor could actually light that! Thanks Clive!
Now that is impressive !
And……..just got 100 from ebay 😀 😀
FUCK YEA THANKS MAN NOW I DONT HAVE TO SKREW AROUND AND BUY ONE AND TEST IT OUT FOR MY IGNITION SYSTEM THX BUDDY! (subed btw)
