Gender Reveal Smoke Bomb FAQs

It produces pink or blue smoke for an outdoor announcement. Choose one answer color for the reveal. It is a pyrotechnic device, so the exact label controls placement, protective equipment and clearances; it is not an indoor party prop.

The discreet-label WP40 is one pink or blue device with an approximate 90-second duration. The discreet-label EG25 pack contains three devices of the same selected color. The 2025 US manufacturer guide lists approximately 25 seconds per EG25 device. These are approximate durations, not guaranteed photographic windows. Both use wire-pull ignition without a lighter.

Have a trusted keeper receive the result, select the color, receive the package and verify the order. Parents can leave receipts and packages with that person. Keep every device in original packaging with all labels and instructions readable. Do not use foil, tape or replacement wrappers to hide information.

No. The keeper can order the known answer color. Buying both is optional if the keeper needs to select later; it does not guarantee delivery or eliminate mix-ups. Check the shipping information rather than assuming an arrival date.

Count the separate effect takes you have permission and suitable conditions to make. One WP40 gives one activation; one EG25 pack supplies three same-color devices for separate activations. An additional same-color spare is optional. The pack does not contain three colors, and guests do not need individual devices.

No indoor use, including garages, tents or ventilated studios. Do not hold a device while it produces smoke, throw it, walk through its plume or put it inside a prop. An adult operates it outdoors exactly as its printed label directs. Sparks, flame, hot gas and hot casing are possible.

Keep them out of smoke exposure and make their portraits and reactions smoke-free. Use a cake, card, sign or sealed treat box for participation. For a colored-background family image, photograph the family without smoke and combine it with a separately photographed outdoor prop-only effect. A guessed distance is not an exposure assurance.

Keep people clear and follow the exact label’s failed-activation instructions. Do not tamper with it, relight it, dismantle it or approach it on an invented timer. Contact Shutter Bombs support for product guidance after securing the area according to the instructions.
