stars either shattered or fired blind Im erring towards the first.
the 3 shells were tests for burst boosters and I cant see or hear a decernable diference.

Just fire some 3.5" shells and was a bit dissapointed with both the stars and diferences in the bursts.
So, it´s a mobile phone video. There´s not very much to get out of it. First: Its dark. Anyway, the first break looks denser and brighter.
The burst seemed to be equal for each of the shells. Correct me if I´m wrong here.
Help us analyzing it: MORE information about liftcharge, burstcharge and type of bc please!

Nice little shell Karl! BTW, what size were the stars in it please?Made a quick 3" Cylindrical shell with Win 20 glitter. It uses the Gamon plastic case and has 10mm Portugese time fuse. Have a look

It looks like your favourite Win 20 would make really good glitter pistils for the 4" Peonys I'm constructing for Easter. I'm looking at 12mm pumped, using 200-mesh MgAl... Does the Win 20 need step priming, or can you just dust it with BP/Greenmix as with D1 glitter?

I loved the beraq alot myself. I read all your tuts and looked at all your pics before making the shell. I was testing and testing with your method of fusing. I never did get it exactly how I wanted it though, so I just used visco fuse. It was regular chinese, I primed it after cutting carefully and setting the fuse just as careful. It worked well except for one rogue beraq Perhaps after more work the next ones will have timing liek yours.
I usually document all my shell building, excpet this time I didn't because the last few times noone wanted to see and pics/video. Oh well, I will make more and I will document them next time.
Those beraq look very nice, high quality. I bet it shows in thier performance as well.

If you need any more tips just drop me a PM, what was the problem with your old beraq? Not igniting and making it through the delay hole? I now have a very good mixture that works 100% and is quick. Loved your other shells was well, I always like seeing your pics and vids of pyro! Keep them coming, you are making some amazing stuff!
