NIGHT SMOKE LAUNCHER 112 SHOTS XT1090

112 angled shots with colored smoke and a strobe — a combination you rarely find in a single cake. The XT1090 from Triplex is a Compound V-style launcher, meaning the shots fly at an angle, creating a wide fan of effects instead of a single vertical column. A 30mm caliber across 112 shots provides solid density — and there’s an additional smoke layer that works both day and night. What sets the XT1090 apart from other cakes Most cakes are either classic night effects (stars, chrysanthemums, peonies) or strictly daytime smokes. The XT1090 combines both worlds. At night you see strobe flashes and colorful bursts, while during the day you get multicolored smoke trails that look completely different from standard displays. That means you can fire this cake at dusk and get an effect no typical launcher can reproduce — smoke illuminated by a strobe looks like a colored mist pulsing with light. The angled Compound V construction requires more space than a classic vertical cake. The shots spread to the sides, so you need a wider field — a minimum of 20–25 meters of free space on each side. The fan effect is worth it, because instead of a narrow column you get a wide wall of smoke and light. Technical specifications of the XT1090 1. Number of shots: 112 2. Caliber: 30mm 3.

Manufacturer: Triplex Who this cake is for The XT1090 is a cake that works primarily at events — both as part of a fireworks show and as a special effect for photo and video sessions. Colored smoke combined with strobe flashes produces footage that looks phenomenal, especially in slow motion. If you’re organizing an outdoor event and want something guests haven’t seen before — a nighttime smoke cake is a completely different category than another chrysanthemum cake. When firing, remember the angled construction — the arrows on the label indicate shot directions and never position the cake so that any direction points toward people. Place it on hard, flat ground (asphalt, packed earth), keep at least 25 meters distance from spectators, and make sure you have enough free space on the sides for the fan to spread.
