The Thermal Detonator, which first appeared in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, is the first prop we're offering used by a female character--Princess Leia Organa--disguised as the bounty hunter who appeared before Jabba the Hutt to negotiate a better price for the captive Chewbacca.
Master Replica's recreation of the thermal detonator started with a detailed examination of the original prop.  Their designers sketched a detailed map of the complex patterns created by the layers of plating and paint in order to create an absolutely authentic replica.
MR has taken extreme measures to duplicate every detail of the thermal detonator exactly as it appeared in the movie.  I know you will agree that this is the definitive replica of this small, but complex film prop.

The thermal detonators timer may be reset to a maximum of 5 minutes or it can be set with a dead mans switch, which means that when the switch is thrown it will explode.
When the detonator explodes it activates the baradium and a proccess of fusion begans, as the baradium's fusion reaction creates a particle field that quickly expands outward, releasing enough energy and heat to vitually disintegrate anything caugh in the blast sphere.
Thermal detonators are strictly controled by the military and they are only military issue weapons, and are illegal for civilian possession, but this creates massive fl market demands driving the price up to 2,000 credits per detonator.

 A Low Cost, Reliable, Hermetically Sealed, Chip Slapper Detonator Suitable for Various Aerospace Applications
Detonator is designed to be fired with a Capacitor Discharge Unit (CDU) fireset with a capacitor in the range of 0.05 to 0.3 µF. The CDU supplies a rapidly rising current pulse on the order of several thousand amps to the detonator to cause it to function.
The specified detonators were subjected to thermal shock between temperatures of -46° C and +71° C. The detonators were subjected to a total of 35 cycles, beginning with the cold temperature.
The detonators were moved between thermal chambers in less than 1 minute, and were subjected to a dwell time of at least 20 minutes at each temperature extreme.

A thermal detonator is a highly unstable and dangerous weapon.
When the detonator is armed, the baradium fuels a fusion reaction that disintegrates everything within a certain radius.
Due to the fact that baradium is synthesized, thus increasing costs, and because of the lethal nature of the device, thermal detonators are not issued to standard troops.

Because of this, detonators have been know to spontaneously explode when thrown, dropped, or for no apparent reason.
Because of this, the weapons were strictly military-regulated and were disallowed for civillian use, however their usefullness creates a demand for the weapon, pushing fl market prices up to two thousand credits.

 Patent 4484523: Detonator, solid state type I film bridge
A solid state detonator is made using a silicon chip with appropriate surnding sections to provide the resistance path necessary to detonate a primary explosive.
Thus, the low current problem of earlier thermal detonators is avoided due to the large increase in surface area which permits the actual heat caused by the spurious current to be dissipated due to its thermal dissipation characteristics.
However, when the normal detonating current is present in resistor film bridge 32, adequate heat is generated such that a large detonating surface area in primary explosive 40 is created which is a far greater working surface area than anything previously used in a thermal initiated detonator.

The first Thermal Detonator on the inside of a Sand Worm gives them a bad case of heart-burn.
I've experimented with several weapons, and only Thermal Detonators seem to be able to kill them, and those only because they are mobile.

The Thermal Detonator consists of a 30.5 cm long ribbed tube, two endcaps on each end of the tube and a box housing that clasps around the middle part of the tube.
A particularly noticeable part of the Thermal Det box is the indention area on the top of the box.
Since the Thermal Det box is essentially a square, we decided not to sculpt the object in play, but to make a rigid pattern out of sheet plastic which we would then tape up the seams, therefor giving us a final mold to our plaster into much quicker than sculpting.
