I don't know if it has been done before, but my idea is to use a sprinkler valve (or multiple ones) and a stun gun to trigger the shot. The sprinkler valve(s) will be connected to the same switch that the stun gun is on to have them both go off at the same time to cause combustion and opening of the valve(s). I think multiple valves are most likely needed so the current of air through the valves wont ruin them. What do you guys think?

i thought of that, like a 2 stage gun, this way, u can go to xxbar without worrying about the propane being liquidfied

propane becomes a liquid at a high pressure, lets just say u have a really long barrel, a hybrid fuel-air mix at 100psi, gas turns liquid, when you open the valve, a spud shoots like a normal pneumatic, the when the pressure is at 4x, the mixure ignites, thus providing another 200psi boost.

yeah that may take a bit more than one valve...

have 2 chambers, both with a union for burst disks. the first is normal air at 40psi, the second is a hybrid mix at 100psi. the first disk pops, the spud moves until it the pressure is 0, but it keeps moving for a while so it generates a partial vacuum. That vacuum pops the second disk, which lets the spud move at 100psi, then it goes down to a 4x mixture, some sort of sensor fires a stungun, and a hyprid goes off, giving it another 250psi boost. crazy!! a 3 staged hybrid!! also check out my relative pressure safety theory for hybrids. saladtossser.mypicgallery.com/MyIdeas1/hybrididea2_large.jpgit wont explode but just in case

Yeah, well the only thing wrong is that the propane will not turn to a liquid at a pressure like that, its mixed with the air anyway. If the propane was liquid, the air would almost be liquid. So, no use for separate chambers. There's no use doing this. Besides, one of the reasons the chamber is pressurized with air is so it has more oxygen to burn with the propane. And my point to this trigger idea is to eliminate those pain-in-the-ass burst disks.
