Abstract
A diversionary device including a triggering mechanism, a payload and a compressed gas container containing a compressed gas. The compressed gas is non-flammable. The triggering mechanism is coupled to the compressed gas container, and conveys at least some of the gas from the compressed gas container to the payload after a predetermined delay after the triggering mechanism is activated. The gas conveyed to the payload causes the payload to produce a diversionary acoustic effect.
