The Detonator is a secondary weapon for the Pyro. It is only available in the Team Fortress 2 Beta. Currently, it uses the Flare Gun model.
The weapon's alt-fire detonates the flare in mid-flight, creating a small explosion which ignites enemy players. The knock back from the explosion can also be used to Flare jump in a manner similar to rocket or sticky jumping. Players wielding the Detonator have a 20% explosion vulnerability. It was released in Team Fortress 2 Beta on February 11, 2011.
Since the item is still in an unreleased stage, these attributes may be changed or the weapon may be scrapped entirely.

Update history
(Beta) February 11, 2011 Patch
- The Detonator, a new Flare Gun, has been added. Its stats are:
- Alt-fire detonates flare in flight
- Does a small explosion that catches players on fire
- 20% explosion damage vulnerability
- Alt-fire detonates flare in flight
- Detonation particle effect increased to better match the radius
Bugs
- The afterburn of a flare projectile can harm a Scout under the effect of Bonk! Atomic Punch.
- If a Pyro were to reflect a flare and hit a target who then dies from the afterburn, the kill icon will be that of the Flare Gun and not the reflected flare icon.
- From a first-person view, the flare seems to fire from behind the Flare Gun, just like the Huntsman.
- When an enemy is hit with a detonated flare, the blood particles will come from where the flare was detonated, instead of the player.
Trivia
- The Detonator functions in a similar fashion as The Gentle Manne's Olde Firecannone, one of the weapons in the Advanced Weaponiser mod.
