How it works

Unlike standard matches, these have a coating that will burn for four seconds at a rate that can stand winds of 40 mph and will burn after submersion, instead of just igniting balsa wood like standard matches


Calum says...
They certainly do their job once they get burning, if a gust of wind blows they ember until the wind stops, then re-ignite themselves. However, getting them to light can be a problem with the provided strike-strip, I'd reccommend using a coarse nail file or something similar. Overall, they do their job, but experiment with different surfaces to strike them on.
