Never heard of anybody buying from Michael. He has a big sparger mini plant in
the desert but I wonder if XL-Space is a reliable manufacturer.
Bengtsson 's HTP plant in Sweden OTOH, supplying jetpack enthusiasts in Europe
for many years never recovered after the 2010 fire.
Lastly, I know of no amateur team ever succeeding in launching a British style
kerosine/HTP bipropellant rocket. I said rocket and in the West. Takes so many
years and so much money to build all gave up. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Just curious. I remember former Armadillo gave up on 80-90 % peroxide
as a propellant because they reported that unexpectedly, they found no
more supplier. As considerable batches were required for their tests
and launches, they had wisely decided to avoid the hassle to distill
it themselves. Realizing such a mini plant of their own for it takes
years to design from scratch and build.
Big companies "responsible care" policy prohibits selling HTP to
rocket amateurs. So where do you buy or intend to buy your HTP at present,
Robert?
Monroe?

One thing your going to have to be prepared for, at least with using
silver as the catalyst, in my experience no two runs are exactly the
same. There is a little bit of an art in getting a clean run and with
silver, temperature, RH and even barometric pressure can play a role in
getting a good clean run.
