i looked on the back of the proton bomb and its had a black number 8
That would mean it was produced to the new spec (probably!) So don't expect a performance like the loud bangs of old.

Am taking some pics the now , bare with me 15 mins ishChris - I actually spoke to the XS Store people in Irvine and its they that havent got back to me.
Anyway the year eg, 2006 should be clearly shown on the bottom left or right of the yellow description label. Sometimes it is just the last digit.
If it is definitely an 8 then thats 2008 which means a lot less flashpowder. In which case you've saved me a drive.
Thanks.

8 will mean new spec, most likely.
But remember with fireworks that there are no definates.
I picked up a "7" pack of rockets, 6 titchers for £3, and wow- they volume and the burst on those.

Yep! This was the problem when fireworks were changed to comply with new regs- with many brands it was really hard to tell IF they had been changed, WHAT had been changed etc.
The good thing about Brothers, for example, is they kept the old fireworks the same, and brought out a new range to cmply with new regs (which is very good.) But importantly, no confusion regarding what does what or if a specific item is "new reg" or not.

Gigantic Crab!!! does not care for your safety but merely points this out as an opportunity to toss one onto a friends bonfire/bbq could yield hilarious results.
