Potassium Nitrate is Not toxic......Potassium is found in bannanas (think i spelled that right....how does the song go?) which are edible and you actually breath in Nitrogen, but depending on the consentration of the chemical will give you certain levels of irritation if any....ill see if i can find the actual chemical makeup of the chemical

KNO3.

Thats not what i meant i mean KNO3 could actually be the general form of K2N2O6
what they show does not necesarrily mean what it comes out as......molecules, chemistry and such......

LOL its statments like this that show me just how bad I screwed around those years back in school. I hope your findings are all positive because I really wanna make that. It would be ideal pull pin and the whole nine yards!

No it is not toxic....unless you decide to sit in the middle of the smoke and breath it rapidly....even then not really

Great so if I toss this into a small room no one is gonna get gased! thats all I need to know thanks

Though not home-made (and slightly on the spendy side) these might be a safe alternative for woodsball use.

I think a larger quantity of baking soda may be the key to the KNO3 smoke bomb, as well as using pyrotechnic grade potassium nitrate, which seems to have additives in it already to suppress flames. It's something I'll have to test out when I have a chance. If anyone else has a chance to test it with either of these options be sure to let us know.

yeah, $4 a pop is a little on the spendy side. because i wanna be able to spam smoke

[cyberthrasher_706]

yeah, I'm going to look into how they're made.

That would be great another useful product. I think they are a little pricy though. and i like the idea of a pull pin better rather than having to try to light something on fire.
