Question 1

What’s the difference between this and fat rope stick?

Accepted Answer

The Fat Rope Stick is better in wet conditions where the tinder would also get wet AFTER you fluff it. It’s intended for hotter sparks from ferro rods, or firesteels…along with open flames.

The Fast Fire Stick is fine if it gets wet, but it’s just less effective if it’s wet after you fluff it. Fast Fire Stick is also slightly better in wind. Since it has finer fibers, it maintains a hotter flame in windy conditions…but that same feature also makes it absorb water more when fluffed. Fast Fire Stick also can be lit with a flint spark also…which is not as hot as a ferro rod / firesteel spark.

Question 2

Can someone tell me how to store until use, can it be put in air tight bag so it wont get wet or does it need to breathe do to chemicals needed light?

Accepted Answer

Procamptek Fast Fire Stick does not "off-gas" chemicals, so it doesn't need to "breathe" during storage. It has indefinite shelf life, so it is very forgiving on how it is stored. We recommend storing in a cool, dry place... much the same way you would do long term food storage or other camping gear. Much like those items, just store in a way that keeps away mold and mildew. That's all there is to it, really. Even in hot climates, some of the wax may melt at the edges and the packaging may age... but neither affect the overall performance and ability to ignite.

Question 3

Can it be kept in a get home bag stored in your car during summer heat?

Accepted Answer

Yes but we would recommend keeping it in a zip lock bag so the wax won't melt onto other objects in your kit.

Question 4

what are the dimensions of the stick?

Accepted Answer

That Fast Fire Stick is 6" x 1"
