glo plugs, micro switches, batteries

hiya people..

i'd like to fit a spark generator/ heat source (glo plug?) into a
space
between 1.5 and 2 in long.
1.5 in. high.. anywhere in there.

is this possible? glo plug, battery, microswitch, all in a space so
small?

how else could it be done?
how do those electric lighters work? they have a nice spark produced
from small works.

what's the smallest glo plug?
what's the minimum current requirements of glo plugs?

all i need is a spark or a hot coil for a second to trigger a
theatrical effect.
the spark sets off a tiny bit of flash paper. poof. small.
no i don't want finger flashers and other flint wheel asmemblies.

the whole works should fit into a space about half the size of a
matchbox.

best,
B

 

Sounds like someone is building a BOMB!
