What good would that do? lol[/quote]

Because the way you rotated the matches they ended up lighting each other ;D If you rotated them the other way the laser would light each match.

Actually, the laser did indeed light each one, as I was there watching, the laser was faster than the convected match heat.

That was not readily apparent in your video. ;)

Kudos btw. I don't mean to come off as bashing, just sayin. :D

I agree it was not apparent. troop231 ... why not make another video and rotate the matches the other way...I think it would be much more impressive. :cool:

Well I took another vid, but when I copied the vid from my camera over to my computer it seems it doesn't want to play on the computer and it wont read the file. But on the camera it plays just fine. Well basically the vid was great, and it did take a few seconds more compared to the last vid. :cool:

If you still have the vid can you upload it somewhere? I might be able to fix it.
