The Nanosparks is absolutely amazing, I use it for about 3 years and love it. It’s the perfect companion for an alcohol stove. I also have a Titan lighter from Exotac and I really like the fact that it’s waterproof so the lighter fluid doesn’t evaporate.

Nanospark is a great bit of kit! I've got a cheap fire wheel thing which is basically just a brass version of what you find in a clipper lighter, holds 2 spare flints and throws as good a spark as iv ever needed! Great video as always!

I think speed was the issue with that ferro rod, with the harder "Swedish" style rods like the LMF you can scrape slower and produce sparks but with the softer rods more speed is necessary but im sure you already know that lol

Very interesting. I use a mix of fire lighting gadgets...I like Exotrac kit. There's a but in there my titanlight lid does not seal well, it also let's the fuel build up inside the top so when you open it, the top of the lighter is wet.

@RobEvansWoodsman 2 жыл бұрын

If I store mine flat the fuel dose leak into the lid.

@tikkidaddy Жыл бұрын

Turn it upside down, let the fuel that has migrated into the cap go down, open bottom, open top.with lighter upside down, put fuel back in, screw on bottom cap, wipe lighter and hands, strike😂 Lighter takes #35 o rings in an emergency keep them up to date, a bit of silicone O ring grease helps to slow O ring wear.

@tikkidaddy Жыл бұрын

All of a sudden it hit me one day...I overfilled it maybe? Is there a law written that says I can't invert it, and pour it back in? I just sat and laughed at myself for 10 minutes. Can't do that with a Zippo, don't need to do it with a Maratac Brass Peanut XL BUT its not windproof at all, but you sure as hell can with that thing. Keep the spare lighter parts (wicks, flints, O rings, pins etc) in that little Altoids mint tin in a small plastic Zip bag, small beading wire tied off on wicks for any lighter makes them MUCH easier to install

Fun bit of kit brother, I like fire fun. I still can't understand how you can have such a low opinion of bic lighters and praise the exotac lol. It's basically a dead bic lighter with no guard and a hollow storage handle. I think we need a side by side challenge or a modifying a bic lighter to be like an exotac lol.

Zippo makes a sparker type tool now but its plastic . They tried putting it in a standard Zippo lighter case in bright orange but I think that's a collectors item maybe?.

Find the exotac gear is a bit to pricey for a tight arse like my self. When there are plenty of other products that do the same job for a lot less money. At the end of the day it's just more toys for the cupboard.

I am a big fan of the exotac nano striker xl (it’s a mouthful to say and not sure where the xl comes from since it couldn’t be much smaller and still be functional). Been meaning to try out the larger exotac ferro rods because of the tinder storage. Have you tried the esee fire kit? Decent sparks and a ton of storage

@RobEvansWoodsman Жыл бұрын

I've looked at the Esee but I have so many ferrorods that I can't justify another one and the shallow side of me says it's not as pretty as the Exotac gear. It's a shame that the Exotac rods are so soft and that really doesn't suit my methods.
