pencil torch at arms length mate.
I had goggles, gloves etc because I was a bit worried about any motion it may have from the efflux, but as it goes it was just a very quick intense flare as you would expect.
I knew full well they were only tracer as I remember them getting pulled unceremoniously with pliers by the range warden (I wish we had a kinetic back then as I have a whole load of 147gr RG and tracer with bloody great marks on them tesnews )
Took a while to get it to go, I think it was the delay pellet that took some persuasion.
The neighbour made me laugh, she thought I was trashing rats again!!
Just been offered some 9mm Bulleted blank, I will grab a couple don't worry.

I have some AMA NATO tracer here I was going to pull for you, does burning the indicator off mark the bullet externally?
