Just a quick safety note on the Chinese made firing systems...

Some of the cheaper models are relay based (possibly reed relay) and if subject to shock - ie placed near to a mortar or physically kicked for whatever reason, will prematurely trigger random channels. It has been known for all cues to fire at once on firing the first

EDIT: The original warning was from Ned Gorski on Passfire - he reported this problem with 'cheap Chinese 12 shot units that sit about 2 inches tall, and a couple of the higher quality Chinese 12 and 16 shot systems which sit about 4 inches tall and incorporate a sequencing option'.

Hehe, I know and am friendly with the guy that develops and owns Bright Spark The only experience I have had with Wireless fireing systems wasnt a good one. It was the pyromate wireless system and during a continuity check it fired off a few vollys of %2 and 6" shells. Luckly the field was cleaed before they did it, but scary just the same...

Some igniters are 20mA no fire and some a lot more, You really have to know the spec for your igniters.
