A self distruct button would be nice :-)
But really, a voltage meter would very handy, nothing is worse than pushing the
button and nothing happens because your battery is low or dead.

I want pretty much the same things Dave mentioned, except I don't need remote
continuity checking. Just check it out at the pad -- and of course it needs to
be flashbulb-safe. I also like to have a launch button sturdy enough that I can
step on it to launch the rocket, leaving my hands free to snap a liftoff photo.
The Pratt SureFire II is the system I own and it already has every feature I need, all in a convenient, portable container.

Oh yeah, that's also a must, and is another feature I like in the Pratt
SureFire. :)

Two wires and a car battery, totally foolproof.

Do you ever catch yourself pushing harder when you have a misfire?
Pointless as it seems, I'm guilty :-)
