While I understood what you meant at 6:22, I couldn't help but laugh. The rubber band will keep it from getting depressed and no one wants a sad lighter.

@timhahne3894 Год назад

A lifetime ago while in the US Army I carried 10 min road flares as a signaling device, fire starter, water heater ect... I had several soldiers criticize me until they needed some hot coffee on a cold morning with no time for other methods. They are light, fairly durable, easy to use but frowned upon around jet fuel and gasoline, LOL.

@ChrisvilleUSA Год назад

Leave your chain on the small ferro rod, loop it around your finger to extend your grip on it. Works good for me

@KJ6EAD Год назад

I use an updated version of the petrolatum cotton ball. I saturate disk-shaped cotton make up removal pads with petrolatum, shingle a few together and seal with a vacuum sealer. The packaging protects them from water; they're flat and you can scrape magnesium onto them for an extra boost.

@nickmartino2839 Год назад

Maybe excessive lol but I what I do...I take an old pot and heat up wax and Vaseline together until it's liquid state then take a bunch of make up rounds for taking off make up soak them in the mix and then lay them all out on wax paper to dry... and what you end up with is a most phenomenal water proof fire starter that i cut into 4s to make last longer.... its very cheap to make and works way better than anything I've ever bought!

@billydickerson5647 Год назад

One of the fire starters I use are the round cotton pads dipped in wax, they burn for 7 minutes

@henryvandeventer2457 Год назад

Yeah, they are fantastic. I prefer them to cotton balls in vaseline as they are cleaner and don't make a mess. Very long burn time and a nice hot burn.

@dennisleighton2812 10 месяцев назад

Yeah I agree! However, to save on hassle, one could keep the cotton make-up remover pads separate, and when one wants to start a fire, add a blob of Covid style hand sanitiser (gel, not liquid) and rub it in slightly. It will ignite instantly with a ferro rod spark, empty lighter spark or even flint & steel spark. This way they components can be kept in Ziploc bags to be waterproof all the time. It will burn for quite a while, while getting the kindling going. If it does take too long (wood a bit damp, high humidity) just add a pad before the first goes out. Or, here's another tip. Use a candle as a flame extender! Candles are unsung heroes, and very good for this purpose. Even those Christmas tea lights left over! They work very well. BTW, does anyone use a pencil sharpener to make the finest curls? Brilliant - never be without one (especially the aluminium ones that have two size holes!). Just chuck a few correct size soft wood dowels in your pack, as they will make tons of curls! Tinder perfect.

@Unknown39485 9 месяцев назад

A good idea is to “90 degrees spining” each and every knife you have, from the Camillus Air Force survival to the foldable ones, to both sides of the nail file of the mini-Victorinox keyring penknife. This way you’re sure to have a striker for the ferrorod. And even if you don’t use a ferrorod, a sharp corner is always an asset, for example for getting wood dust tinder from a small limb.

@kayakcobber524 Год назад

Use braided sizalrope drained in old candle wax. Always lights with a ferrorod and you can make lots of meters with no cost. Anyway 20 cm last a long time already to start a fire. As it's like a match...

I use the regular round cotton pads dipped in wax. I put some Zippo lighter fluid in the center of the pad, then dip it in melted wax, place on wax paper to dry. Dirt cheap, not as messy as vaseline and cotton balls and it's 100% water proof and weather proof. Tested some by leaving them outside in the rain and snow for 3 weeks, lit perfectly 1st try with my ferro rod. Burn time is close on 7+min and it's a nice hot burn. When you want to light it, tear it open and expose the cotton fibers, light with a ferro rod or lighter.

@markp6062 Год назад

Yeah, good stuff! Glad to see someone giving the bic lighter it due as a fabulous primary. Compact, long lasting. and easy to keep around. They make for a fabulous fire starter. I also noticed that no match technologies made it to your list. I wonder why? ;)

@johnsmithfakename8422 Год назад

A firestarter I like to use that is a bit underrated is waxpaper. It does not burn long but it burns. My preferred fire starter is a fire starter gel or paste. I am not a fan of petroleum jelly and cotton balls, I would rather use wax dipped cotton (cotton rounds, Dental cotton AKA cotton rolls, or cotton rope).

@Plastikdoom Год назад

Before I watch, yes they are worth it, eother in convienence, in normal times. Or if you really needed them, that being said, you don’t to buy expensive ones there are many varieties you can make yourself, in small or large batches, depending on climate and how much you use them. Just look to the comments for ideas, on this vid and any other talking about firestsrters, I came up with my own, as a teen, camping on the Oregon coast where I grew up. They involve parafin wax, some Vaseline, shaved ivory soap, motor oil, kerosene, diesel, and naphtha the liquids in small amounts, the solids more of, mainly the wax, solids being melted to a liquid then all of them slowly being mixed together. With cotton balls/old rags, or wood chips/saw dust, a mixture of all 3 at times. They work amazing. If you make my version, use an electronic single burner, outside, with fire extinguishers at hand…as you are heating flammable things, and mixing them, and do it outside only, haha. They work great, but a slight danger to make, of you do dumb things.

@Plastikdoom Год назад

For some context, I started making those, or the early variants of it a bit over 20 yrs ago, growing up camping, hunting, back packing in the temperate rain forests really makes it worthwhile for something like this, some of you may notice, it’s actually napalm. Just modified, with less amounts and one less type of liquid, haha, and missing one main solid ingredient, just lore of the solids, and barely enough liquids, for it to be a slightly soft, waterproof, highly flammable paste, mixed with cotton/wood shavings/sawdust from work. Cheap, simple and very effective, as far asbinn by know, when I started making making these, nothing but ferro/magnesium rods existed, as far as commercially sold, and storm matches. I’m sure if you dig down enough back then, on some super obscure forum, there’ll be mention of something similar, for the reasons of only lighting a camp fire, in survival conditions. Not others, for any of you old enough to remember certain cook books, the old version that used to make it rounds on the internet, ahaha. But survival/bush craft, etc. wasn’t a big thing back then, not like now, wasn’t openly discussed, unless you weee talking about it in a small community, among friends and family…many thought you were a crazy, even as a teen in small America, in the country, where most camped and hunted, that was normal, but talking out lapse of the norms, wasn’t, unless it was it was to the old timers that could remember the Great Depression, or the people that were there first born kids. So for me, those people were same age or 6 years or so younger than my grandparents, other than that, any talk like that was generally frowned upon, or at least seen as super weird.

A trip to the dollar store provides party sparklers or sparkle candles. Also makeup removal pads dipped in paraffin mixed with lamp oil. Which also works with cotton balls and dryer lint. Another party favor is the trick candles that reignite when you blow them out and of course 4th of July sparklers.

I think UCO makes the Tinder Tabs. I’ve been putting them in my kits for a long time now. Recently got some Fire Plugs from Bigfoot Bushcraft (sorry not Wazoo). And now I’m in the process of adding fire plugs to my kits. I use flint and steel as my go-to method. Simply because I’ve been doing it for over 55 years. I think I have a peanut lighter in one of my kits, but the only kits with the bic lighters (all in an Exotac fireSLEEVE) are in my ‘give away’ kits, and the family kits.

@inregionecaecorum Год назад

I will second what you say about the fireplugs, since I discovered them I have not looked back. Ferro rod, half a fireplug and some kindling and you are good to go. I am not much a bic fan though, I still prefer a zippo, but always carry spare fuel.

@darrylgordon5170 Год назад

Great video. I have been enamored with fire making since I was a scout and found the little ferro rod set at scout camp in the 70s. But first things first. I am reading the comment's and I have noticed a common reply to many a request to text a phone number. I am wondering is this a scammer? Or is it you or your friends at Wazoo doing a promo give away thing? A phrase we often hear in the military is "2 is 1 and 1 is none." It speaks to redundancy. What is the best Firestarter? The one you have on you when you need it. Fire, like the ability to process water, is an area that transcends the 2 is 1 idiom to another common military term "in triplicate." This triplex could be 3 Bic lighters. If you walked into the woods with 3 fresh Bic lighters with the intention of not coming back out until all three lighters were completely expended. I dare say, that even if you were less than judicious in their use, you would be quite some time. However, the reality is this: ultimately, the Bic lighter eventually runs out of fuel. And then it runs out of spark. So perhaps the best Firestarter is the skill of the primitives? I participated in a rather lengthy survival school in the Philippines where the indigenous Negrito instructor while demonstrating his version of the fire saw kindled a fire just as easily as you or I would strike a match. However, that is a man who uses that technique in the same manner as we typically use that Bic lighter. To light his cigarettes. Knowledge, though, is not the same as skill. I watched him do it. Eventually, and with much greater expenditure of calories than his, I was able to duplicate his result. So there appears to be a sort of venn diagram dictating when a system should be employed to maximize the possibility of a successful outcome. So the best Firestarter is the one that you have with you that most adequately executes the task given the circumstances at hand.

Elastic bands are ok, but if you really want to prevent your Bic lighter from accidental discharge you’d better use a zip tie. It effectively locks the gas button. You simply cannot depress it, even if you want. The only downside is that it usually takes a blade to get rid of it!

@brianbartulis9709 Год назад

hmm, I was hoping you'd have had beeswax 'n chainsaw shreds/sawdust mix. I know some do, but always lit with a lighter. I've lit naked chainsaw shreds (ya get nice shreds when chain is nice 'n sharp) with a ferro rod. Plus I've my father's old stash of beeswax ( 2 or 3 lbs) I've been thinking of making the shreds better with the wax. But I've a gut feeling of too much wax won't take to flame with a ferro rod. ho hum, guess I'll have to do Lab Tests and ramp up amount. (-: ...sparks to fatwood shaves/cuts is so easy. Replicating as to wax 'n shreds would be great use for dad's old wax stash...for Easter eggs. Methinks your big ferro rod might be an EricX Light rod. They work decent for me. (1/2" X 6") What sold me on them was the pre-drilled hole for cord. ~~ Oh yeah, ifn in a pickle/emergency for some decent tinder start...have a sharp edge. One can take a sharp knife perpendicular scrape to back of jeans/ other textiles and get dryer lint stuffs. Heck, cut the stitching on pants cuffs/unroll and cut that up. tips me hat ~

Coughlan makes stormproof matches that are just as good but the container isn't the best. Birch bark also makes a pretty good fire starter too. Just pull off a strip and light it up with a lighter.

Of course both you and I know that that's not all of the ways to start a fire but you did Cover the best ones I believe. There is one thing you did not mention and that is don't throw an empty lighter away because it works just like that exotac Striker that you showed with a little fireplug in the bottom, which I did not know that was there thank you for that. The cotton balls is an excellent way also although I leave one side with no Vaseline on it because it lights a lot better with a Ferro rod. I don't believe I've ever seen that type of painters drop cloth but the next time I'm there I will look. Can you tell me the name of that painters drop cloth?
