In Response To: Dud flares and green lasers (Robert N Pruden)

: When Ken and I were celebrating Canada Day during our Lake Winnipeg trip, I
: shot off some flares to add to the aura of the evening. The failure rate
: of my flares (pen launcher) was over 50%, these flares were anywhere from
: one to two years old not including shelf time in the store.

I think the standard failure rate is 66%, that is why they come in 3 packs. The odds suggest that one in the pack should work.
