How long do Blind Grenades last

How long do blind grenades last.

The entry for Blind Grenades states that it last 1D10 rounds.

However it has the smoke quality and that lasts for 2D10 rounds.

Which one is it. Does the blind grenades smoke and everything disappear after 1D10 rounds.

Does it last 2D10 rounds and only counts as a basic smokescreen after 1D10 rounds.

I think it might be the later, but I want to make sure.

Totally depends on the situation.

Drop one into an unventilated room, and it'll be there half an hour. Drop one outside in a hurricane and it won't last a round.

No books at had, but if memory serves the Blind grenade has effects that impede IR and other electronics. These would be 1d10 with the smoke lasting 2d10.

Thanks for the confirmation. I thought that was the case I just wanted to make sure.

I knew that. I wanted to clarify the length before I added environmental conditions.
