An energy transfer device (10) is provided that is capable of transferring the energy output from one pyrotechnic device (52) to another device (78) for initiating firing thereof. Device (10) comprises a device housing (12) in which a deformable device insert (14) is received. Device insert (14) comprises a central passageway (34) for transmitting the output from a pyrotechnic device (52), including energy, gasses, and/or solids, to another pyrotechnic device (78). The passageway (34) conducts the pyrotechnic device output to a precise location on the second pyrotechnic device (78) where firing is most effectively initiated. The energy transfer device (10) may be employed as a part of a tool (44) used in well completion operations.

A hand-throwable effect-producing body with a manually graspable housing body, a manually operable triggering device having a spring-loaded impact body, an ignition device initiatable by the triggering device and comprises an ignition charge, a delay device is initiatable by the ignition device and comprises a delay charge and a delay line, and a main charge configured to be initiated directly or indirectly by the delay charge. The impact body is configured to be manually moved along the longitudinal axis thereof counter to a spring force into a preloaded position and to be releasably arrested there and to be released by manually operating a triggering element of the triggering device, such that it can shoot out of its preloaded position along the longitudinal axis against an axial stop and thereby initiate the ignition charge.

A drone defense ammunition, such as rifle ammunition (e.g., with a caliber of up to 20 mm) or shotgun ammunition (e.g., up to caliber 4), may include projectiles. The ammunition may release the projectiles loosely as a result of an activation occurring with a time delay to firing of the drone defense ammunition.
