The term “cool burn” or “cold burning” usually refers to the fact that there is no external flame produced and that the temperature of the cartridge is lower than the military and marine distress smokes (which get very hot), thus reducing the risk of fire. However there is a possibility of fire with ANY smoke grenade and no smoke grenade should be used on or near easily flammable materials without an understanding the hazards and a thought out system to manage the risks.

ALL smoke grenades that produce smoke from a wire/ring pull, friction fuse or similar ignition, produce smoke from a formula that burns without the need for atmospheric oxygen. Once ignited is very difficult to stop, until all composition within is burnt. Due to this, the grenade casing does get warm and the smoke within 6” of the grenade is hot and could potentially burn.

Enola Gaye smokes produce some sparks on ignition but no flame and so after the initial start-up of the grenade. The Wire Pull Smokes are considered “cool burn” or “cold burning” given the above definition. During the production of smoke, Enola Gaye products do produce heat but they have tried to keep this to a minimum and so the devices although they do get warm, can be held in the hand during the functioning of the device, however the heat does increase post functioning as there is a lag in the heat transfer through the device due to the insulating effect of the cardboard. We strongly recommend that anyone using Enola Gaye Smoke Grenades wear gloves.

It is illegal to use smoke grenades inside sports or football stadiums. Smoke grenade products are not designed for use in these environments and please do everything to ensure the prevention of misuse.

Enola Gaye smoke grenades have a date stamp on the cap. This date is the date of manufacture and not an expiration date. There isn't an expiration date for Enola Gaye smoke grenades. The manufacturer says the smoke grenades should be good to use years after purchase, and actually may get better with age.
