What style of Launcher do I need? Electric or non-remote control Launcher ?

Using Confetti and Streamers might be a tad bit nerve wracking if you've never had

the opportunity to use them before. Don't worry, it's usually very simple.

You'll need to consider a few things:

Measurments of the vicinity you want the special Effect in:

You'll need to ascertain the proportions of the area you want to cover and your ceiling height.

Type of launchers: The confetti and streamers can be launched in a a couple of different ways. You can either drop it from the ceiling by hand, use Confetti blowers to "shoot" the confetti to your required area or use Launchers to throw the confetti or streamers. The only one that works well if you're launching streamers is the launchers not blowers.

Handheld Launcher versus Electric Automatic: This mostly depends on how many you need and how many streamers and/or confetti you want to launch. If you are blanketing a little area for example 40 feet wide and deep, you can use 2-4 32" handheld launchers to produce a nice effect. Remember you will need 1 crew member  to launch them at each place they will be launched. They are very easy to use! Once they'reloaded, you pull the string trigger and away they go!

In a larger area, or if you want to truss mount the launchers or if you can't utilize handheld launchers due to sight lines or lack of manpower, the electric launchers are the way to go. Our XC-2 Launcher is the same version of launcher that you see on virtually any concert, huge theatrical production pr pro application. The reason, they work all the time. They are samll-scale They are not heavy (25 lbs loaded) and they use easy to get compressed air.

In brief, for many Church, School and more small-scale type special events the 32" handheld launcher will do a fantastic job for you. For bigger special Events where you'll need to handle more area or need to shoot the launchers electrically, the XC-2 Launcher is the direction to go!
