Our
'ready to fly' Hot Air Balloons are great for use in Wedding Parties,
4th of July Events, New Years Eve Parties, Meteorology Experiments, and
general research - not to mention just plain fun.
Made of fireproof
tissue paper and wire, these lightweight Hot Air Balloons come complete
with a long burning fuel pellet (see images below) which provides heat
to lift the balloon for 5 to 10 minutes.
The semi-transparent
balloons are absolutely stunning at night where the light of the flame
makes the entire balloon glow the color of the tissue paper. Balloons
come in Yellow, Blue, Orange, Red and Pink.
Balloons are shipped in a flat package and when unfolded, simply snap on the fuel pellet and light.
In
about 3 minutes or so, the heat from the pellet will expand the balloon
and it will begin to tug upward wanting to fly. These balloon will fly
to amazing altitudes and distances.
Fuel pellets are designed to burn
out before balloons reach the ground however they obviously should not
be launched in flammable areas or on high wind days. The ideal
conditions are dark, still nights where the balloon with brightly glow
and eerily lift off in complete silence.
Launching several at a time
is a beautiful sight to see. You might want to inform your neighbors
before you launch one of these at night to prevent them from calling the
police and reporting a UFO invasion.

In Japan, similar balloons are used at wedding parties where guests write various blessings/wishes on the balloons
before setting them free all at once. It's also thought that doing this carries away all the future troubles
and problems of the newly married couple.
