This was my favorite launch controller in the mid 1970s.
The Centuri Powr-Control.
It's standard layout for a controller - safety key, green covered continuity light and red launch button
The 15' of line was wrapped around the controller body.
Easy to store in your launch box and no tangled wires.
Five feet of heavier electrical line ended with the Battery clips.
You could use a lantern battery for single engine launches or car battery for clusters.
This design was far ahead of the older Estes Letra-Line and Launch Control System.
