(6) Fire Starting / Stoves / Heat Generation

Redundant systems to get a fire going is a smart way to think about what gear you will need for any adventure (or misadventure). What if a hand is injured? What if you lose that trusty lighter, or it runs out of fuel? A variety of fire starting tools won’t take up a lot of space or add a lot of weight, and their worth is measured in lives, as hypothermia is the number one killer in survival ordeals. Commercial tinder like Wetfire make fire starting as simple as creating a spark. In difficult weather, it’s hard enough to get a fire going – give yourself a greater advantage to get it going quickly.

This tactical kit comes packed in a sil-nylon waterproof pouch with extra room to store tinder found along the way to keep dry. If you want the absolute best in survival and emergency fire starting tools with tactical considerations in mind, look no further. This is your kit.

    CONTENTS:

    (1) Aurora 2SA (Super Alloy) Fire Starter: The Aurora Fire 2SA Starter is perhaps the best all-around survival fire starter in the world. With aerospace quality construction, the Aurora Fire Starter is a true survival tool that does not compromise. The built-in blade is part of the unit and will not get caught on equipment or rattle in combat or while hunting like other fire starters that have a blade hanging from a string.

    Equipped with an unbeatable life-time tungsten, carbide, cobalt built-in Super Alloy Striking Blade that will never dull! The built-in Super Alloy Striking Blade is made from a tungsten, carbide, cobalt alloy that takes off enough material to start a fire but will not cause excessive wear. This new Super Alloy Striking Blade will not dull and is harder than any knife blade you will find. Manufactured by Solo Scientific in the USA. This is a rugged tool expressly designed for survival. The Aurora Fire Starter uses a large 1/4 in. diameter (.635cm) composite flint steel rod that has magnesium built into it.

    You can wear the lightweight Aurora Fire Starter on your key ring or around your neck on a lanyard and if you are ever separated from your pack or knife you will still have everything you need to start a fire. The built-in blade takes off enough material to start a fire but will not cause excessive wear, and can be flipped over to reveal a fresh striking surface.

    The Aurora Fire Starter is designed to function wet or dry, is machined from solid lightweight aluminum, is knurled for grip, and will not break when you need it most. It has an o-ring seal to prevent the housing from unscrewing and provide protection from corrosion in salt water environments.

    The Aurora Fire Starter is designed to last a lifetime and provide you with fire when the emergency situation occurs. The Aurora Fire Starter comes complete with detailed instructions and fire starting material.

    This black anodized version is non-reflective, making it ideal for tactical, military, and hunting uses.

      • (1) Grabber Esbit-Style Folding Pocket Stove: Stainless Steel! Use the 8 fuel tabs that come with it, or use whatever is around. This compact (3 in. x 4 in. x 5 in.), sturdy, and lightweight (3.2 oz.) pocket size stove is an extremely efficient cooking tool designed for a variety of uses in the outdoors. It opens to two locking positions: fully open to support a frying pan or pot, or angled position for heating a cup. Plated stainless steel design is extremely durable and will not rust. Two supporting side panels help block wind and direct heat upwards. Store unused fuel tabs inside stove while not in use.

The official fire starter of the U.S. Military, the Spark-Lite is simply the best. One should be in every backpack, bug out bag, survival and emergency kit that you own.

      Designed as a one handed fire starter in case of injury, and more reliable than a lighter (that can leak its fuel), The Spark-Lite Military Edition Firestarter is relied upon by U.S. Military forces .

      To use this simple tool, just pull a Tinder-Quik Fire Tab from the plastic case and ignite it with the Spark-Lite. Tinder-Quik is waterproof and will burn for 1-2 minutes, giving you plenty of time to get your fire started. Importantly, the Tinder Quik Fire Tabs can be used directionally, unlike tinder powders, gels, or even tinder cubes.

    • Simple to use
    • Works with a variety of materials you can find outdoors such as milkweed and other fibrous materials

    • Mini-compass
    • Small file

  • Sale! Kindle Cook Flameless Heating System

    Kindle Cook Flameless Heating System

    Great for Emergencies, Travel, and Outdoor Adventures! The Kindle Cook Flameless Cooking System provides a fast, convenient way to heat all types of foods and liquids without the need for ignitable sources. The Kindle Cook System is a stainless steel container that sits within a polymer outer shell. Between the two rests a Max Heat Pack water-activated heater, which, when a little water is added to it, quickly heats up and gets your meal piping hot within minutes, and stays hot!

    Why Do You Need This System?
    You may think, “I already have a stove, why do I need this?” Here’s why:

    • No Ignition Required. All stoves, whether they use natural fuels or synthetic, depend on their ignition for activation. With the Kindle Cook System, you simply need a Max Heat Pack (2.1 oz.) and a little water (or even snow!) and the system kicks in and begins immediately heating your food. No liquid fuels to carry or mess with, and no matches or lighters required. This system is fool-proof. With traditional stoves, jets can get clogged, leaks can occur, and fuel can evaporate. Not so with the Kindle Cook System.
    • The System Can Be Used to Store Other Gear When Not In Use. The interior dimensions of the stainless steel container are 6.5″ x 4.5″ x 2″. You can pack a lot of medical supplies, survival equipment, etc., in the interior and secure it with the locking lid. Then, keep it in your car or anywhere else you may need it, and you will have both the Kindle Cook System to heat food with and whatever else you have stored inside. Of course, you could also simply store extra Max Heat Packs inside the Stainless Steel Pan to ensure you have plenty of heat ready to go.
    • The System Can Be Used Indoors. Whether you are in your home during a blackout, in a tent, or a makeshift shelter — you can use the Kindle Cook Flameless Cooking System without having to go outside. The System does not produce any noxious gases (only a small amount of water vapor will escape during heating). You can stay warm inside your shelter while the Kindle Cook works to make yourself a hot meal, or even simply heat water (in the Stainless Steel Pan) to make a hot drink.
    • The System Stays Warm Up to an Hour. Remarkably, the system will generate heat and stay warm for up to an hour. The polymer outer shell and secured lid provides excellent insulation to keep whatever you have placed inside the Stainless Steel Pan hot.

    Can You Heat MREs With This System?

    • Yes! In fact, you do not need to open the MRE Main Meal pouch in order to use this system. Simply place the MRE Main Meal, still in its foil pouch, inside the Stainless Steel Pan, add a sufficient amount of water to the pan to cover the main meal and enable even heating, and you not only warm the main meal but can use the heated water from the Stainless Steel Pan to make coffee, tea, etc., and you have no mess to clean up! (See Photo with MRE Main Meal Pouch).
    • We’ve been able to heat 6 MRE Main Meal Entrees with this system (consecutively) using only ONE Max Heat Pack!

    Can I Use Dehydrated Foods With This System?

    • Absolutely. Simply add the contents of your dehydrated meal to the Stainless Steel Pan, add the required amount of water to rehydrate the meal, and once the heating starts, enjoy your hot meal in about 8-10 minutes.

    Can I Use Snow To Activate the System?

    • You bet! All you have to do is cup snow in the palm of your hands and let it melt just enough to drip onto the Max Heat Pack. Slowly, the Max Heat Pack should begin to activate. Put the rest of the snow over the heatpack and watch it melt from the heat! It is now fully activated!

    Other Attributes:

    • The Stainless Steel Pan Can Be used to Purify Water or Cook From Traditional Heat Sources. If you are out of Max Heater Packs, you can use the stainless steel pan to continue to cook food and boil water with traditional heat sources as you would with any other pan. The Stainless Steel Pan holds up to 850 ml — that’s a lot of water you can boil in one shot!
    • You Don’t Actually Need The Included Water Bottle. The small water bottle that is included is simply there for you to get used to adding the correct amount of water to the Max Heat Pack to get things going. But you can use the packaging that the Max Heat Pack comes in to do the same thing. See the photo. The line indicates where 150 ml of water will level out when held loosely in your hand. Just remember where that line is, and you can ditch the water bottle and use that space to store extra gear instead.

    FAQS:
    Where Do I Get More Max Heat Packs?

    • A: The system was designed to be used with 60g/2.12 oz Max Heat Packs. These come in 5 packs and sold right here as well! See the below link:
      Buy Additional Max Heat Packs Here!Can I Drink the Water that Boils?
    • A: No. The water used to activate the Max Heat Pack will begin to boil, but you should not drink this water. Even though it is recognized as safe, we do not advise drinking the remnant water used by the Max Heat Pack. Again, it’s a layered system: the polymer bottom pan contains the Max Heat Pack and activation water, then the Stainless Steel Pan goes over this. You can heat water in the Stainless Steel Pan, but it will not get to a rolling boil. However, it will certainly get hot enough for tea, coffee, or cocoa, etc.
