What Is a 20 Inch Sparkler
A 20 inch sparkler is a handheld pyrotechnic device with a long, thin wire coated in a slow-burning composition. It produces a bright, steady stream of sparks for several minutes, making it a popular choice for weddings, parties, and photography.
Burn Time and Performance
Most 20 inch sparklers burn for 45 to 90 seconds, depending on the composition and manufacturer. They typically produce a consistent line of sparks and a warm glow, which is why they are often used for wedding send-offs and group photos.
Safety and Buying Tips
Always light sparklers outdoors on a flat, non-flammable surface and keep them away from clothing and hair. Use a bucket of water to dispose of spent sparklers. Buy from licensed retailers and check local regulations before purchasing.
