Started a fire in one single strike. - My friend and I are trying to become better by practicing fire starting with emergency fire starting tools in bad weather conditions. We were in his backyard in Michigan next to the woods. 5F currently and it was 40F and sunny the day before, so it was a mix of wet and snow. We were not in danger at any point in time, we could have walked back to his house within 5 minutes. As my main kit: I had an emergency stove with alcohol pads, and a ferro rod and this Spark-Lite kit. I know you should pack a BIC lighter, but we intentionally set ourselves outside in a 5F degree weather and try to start a fire without it; BICs do not reliably work under freezing temperatures unless you keep them near your body heat so gas flows normally. We did not use a BIC on purpose. We tried hard to collect kindling and find something in the woods to start the fire (there was no birch bark available and at there was at least a foot of snow on the ground so downed trees were not easy to find) we tried different methods to start the fire. We tried several woods (oaks, pine) with the backspine of our knives to shave off some of it and use it to start the fire. We striked our ferro rods at least 100 times on many of the different options with no luck. The trees were either still green or wet with snow. The Spark-Lite kit with the cotton and spark tool started the fire in one strike. Put it below our kindling and fire worked wonders, we had the fire run for a couple hours no problem. We learned we need to practice more with the ferro rods and different kindlings. But if you My friend purchased one next day as part of the emergency kit.

Does not produce as hot of a spark as a ferro rod but if you have a good tinder with you these do work great. ## Frequently Bought Together - Spark-Lite SL3-OD Military Edition Fire Starter and Tinder Quik - Potable Aqua Water Purification Tablets with PA Plus, Portable and Effective Solution for Camping, Hiking, Emergencies, Natural Disasters and International Travel, Two 50ct Bottles - Spark-Lite Fire Starter (Orange) Military/Aviation Emergency Fire Kit with 8 TinderQuik Tabs --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/2129328-spark-lite-sl3-od-military-edition-fire-starter-and-tinder](https://www.desertcart.com.pa/products/2129328-spark-lite-sl3-od-military-edition-fire-starter-and-tinder) --- *Product available on Desertcart Panama* *Store origin: PA* *Last updated: 2026-10-07*
