Question: Product Recommendations

Hi, I had this idea and wanted to know if it was feasible, and if so what do I purchase? I tried a magic subreddit but am not getting any traction so I thought I would try here:

I want to do a dance routine where I have a small flame in one hand to punctuate a particular word.

I’m in HI and the first issue is getting my hands on flash paper. Both Costume Closet and Zuke’s have closed, and several online magic supply shops say they won’t ship flash paper. Maybe Amazon?

Second, repeated ignition. Ideally I would like something that goes around my wrist that I can activate one-handed. I plan to wear a blazer to hide it, but am open to other options. I plan to use the fire at least five times for the duration of the song. Maybe something with an electrical component that’s rechargeable?

Third, I would like something rugged. Since this is a dance routine, whatever the thing is needs to be able to stand up to being jostled with aggressive hand movements without the flash paper falling out and the trick failing.

Lastly, cost. I don’t have a lot of time and money to RND, my deadline is late November to be ready by early December. My budget for this is around $200, including the flash paper.

Thank you so much in advance for your help.
