HIGH-QUALITY STORM-PROOF LIGHTERS AND MAGNESIUM FIRE STARTERS

Looking for the 2 best and most reliable methods to make fire in the middle of nature? … In an outdoor / survival situation, there are only 2 things that you can really rely on and that always work. The most reliable is the large sized magnesium fire starter rods, and for instant live fire there is the Exotac storm resistant lighter which will not evaporate its liquid.

You know, trying to make a fire with a stick between the hands, and then twirling back and forth between the hands endlessly in the hope that after a while it will get hot enough to detect a flame. This is only reserved for the very experienced outdoor types, but not for the average person who is not a specialist in this field. A Magnesium firestick or a stormproof lighter would be the answer to that !…but where to find such a product…?

 

THE STORM-PROOF LIGHTER SOLUTION

The company EXOTAC from the U.S.A has finally found a solution for this. They have developed a lighter, the EXOTAC TITAN LIGHT, which produces a permanent flame even in strong winds, and whose fuel reservoir is completely 100% evaporation-free sealed from the outside world. This means that you only have to fill this storm-proof lighter once, and if you only use the lighter for the second time after a few years, you will discover that the reservoir is still full! This in itself is something special! … to think that a well-known Zippo lighter completely evaporates its reservoir contents in 2 weeks. A good invention, this evaporation-free lighter

 

THE OTHER FIRE OPTION

Magnesium sticks or Magnesium fire starters have been used by the US Special Forces since the 1980s as an item of the “personal survival” package of military personnel. However, over the last 20 years it has gained a lot of fame in the outdoor / survival world due to the massive spread of this firefighting product.

 

COMMERCIAL FIRE PRODUCTS AND PROFESSIONAL FIRE PRODUCTS

The difference between them is not so much the quality but more the quantity is up to the price. In the well-known outdoor retail chains where people pay very high amounts and receive commercial quality products for this, the average dimensions of Magnesium fire starters are a maximum of 9 mm in diameter and a maximum of 7 to 9 cm long.  The Magnesium fire sticks or Magnesium fire starters that we sell are twice as thick and twice as wide and twice as long! In short; 8x more material for the same price! Besides the fact that a longer fire stick produces fire much easier than a silly little stick, which is more like amateur tampering than making professional fire.

FUNCTIONALITIES OF FIRE

Besides the fact that you need fire for cooking, living fire in the shape of a candle is also very attractive on tables and useful when reading a book about survival techniques. However, fire can also give atmosphere in the form of a candle in a tent, or in the form of a burning stove where, because of the dry heat, one can ideally lie next to with a sleeping bag that is placed over spread-out waterproof bags or simply sitting in a chair. . In winter you do not have to wear a jacket, or any gloves or for that matter hats, when being close by the fire, depending on how close you are to the fire. Other than that, an open fire still gives the best atmosphere, especially on a gravel river bank with the moored kayaks in the background. In short… fire makes our life, and is in emergency situations… of vital importance!
