The development of BFD addons is also advancing, featuring remote control in video. Although the prototype is functional, a new PCB design is required as the current implementation fails to power off the addon, resulting in battery drain during deep sleep mode when not in use.

Watch this space for further updates!

Hello everyone, I apologize for the lack of updates due to personal reasons that forced me to pause development.

A new design of BFD will be provided for testing and long-term evaluation to some avid airsofters starting this Saturday.

The new design features enhanced weather tightness but will require the use of a reload pin.

I’m finalizing the colour options for the first batch - which one is your favourite?

I’ll be doing a small initial drop very soon. Please note that this first version will not support planned add-ons, so I’ll be offering them at a discounted price.

These units are 100% functional BFDs, but PCB needed some changes to fully support planned add-ons (currently waiting for those boards to arrive). These are perfect for anyone looking for an airsoft gr***de for use on soft surfaces.

Hey everyone! I’ve spent the last few months testing my latest BFD (Blank Firing Device) prototype during games and at home, and I’m finally ready to drop the new version in the shop. Here’s what’s changed based on my testing:

- Speeding things up: a 5-second delay was just too long for real-world play, so I’ve dropped it to 2 seconds. I still sometimes "cook" it for a second if I need an instant bang.
-Visual confirmation: I switched to a transparent button, so you can instantly see if the unit is on or off.
- No more lost gear: to save us all from hunting through the leaves, I’m offering a bright orange version.
- Hidden Tech: because that orange plastic is slightly see-through, you can now see the internal LED. I set up different blinking patterns for priming, firing, and idle - it was meant for debugging, but it's a nice bonus.

Using a custom PCB brings some great improvements, like an integrated LiPo battery that’s rechargeable via USB-C. However, it also means the newest version of the BFD will use a 5-second digital timer instead of a remote trigger.

More often than not, I’ve used various iterations of my RBFD by posting them through windows, around barricades, or through cracks in doorways—especially on woodland sites. I want to stress that it’s not intended to be thrown like a gr***de, but rather pushed into position or dropped onto soft surfaces such as grass or soil—places where impact gr***des just aren’t practical.

I’m continuing to learn more about electronics and I’m planning to release a wireless trigger as an add-on for the timed BFD. My goal is for it to work consistently and reliably over longer distances, so it can be used not only in regular skirmishes but also in mil-sims, where line of sight isn’t required for activation!

I still need to do some stress testing on the latest version, but I’m hoping to begin production in early 2026! And yes — I'm considering customisable plates to be an option!

Hey everyone! I wasn’t happy with how inconsistent the wireless receiver was — once it was packed into a smaller space, the range dropped, and even posting around a barricade became unreliable at times. So, in the end, I decided to dive into electronics, design my own custom PCB, and get it manufactured.
The device also feels much more solid and professional now, thanks to using SLS 3D printing instead of conventional FDM!
