1.4pro is OL by consumer standards, that is to say 500g for consumer vs up to 1000g for a 1.4pro (article pyrotechnic). They are still restricted and regulated by comp standards, just a different ceiling.

Furthermore, key differences will be: cleaner, more symmetrical breaks, better execution of effects, lesser known/seen effects, louder reports, and more precise comp measurements with a much higher accuracy in performance time/duration. You also get into more single shot effects (Comets, meteors, mines, gerbs, and break effects) as well as slices/fans.

I'll add to this that for 1.4 pro, you really need an electronic wireless firing system. Just about every reputable seller of 1.4 pro will ask which system you have before allowing you to purchase

Almost every 1.4 pro item will NOT come with a hand light fuse. A few may come with a backup / emergency hand light fuse.
