We belong to a snowmobile club in Canada. We were out on a ride with several others in the party. We were in a familiar area where we ride often. We went down into a ravine and one of the sleds got stuck. As we were trying to get the sled out a blizzard came up. We were in trouble. We couldn't see to get out safely. We tried everything we could think of to get a fire going. We even talked of burning the seats of the sleds to have a fire. I remembered my brother in law had given me some of your product in a baggy. We tamped down the snow to create a base, shielded the wind, lit it, broke off some dead limbs, and in driving wind and snow, Instafire stayed lit, got the other wood going, and kept us warm for a couple of hours while we waited out the storm. Thanks for such an awesome product that saved us in a very bad situation."

“This is a great product — I've seen it cook a full hot breakfast of sausage, hashbrowns, eggs, and tortillas using nothing but Insta-Fire as the heat source in the middle of winter in a parking lot. In preparing for a disaster — I recommend Insta-Fire as on of the top 50 items to be put in a emergency "grab and go bag"

"I have access to virtually every fire starter know to man through the Canadian Military but I have never found one that has all of the properties of this one. Our troops can cook an MRE or we can start another fire in even the worst of conditions, and we see them all. Out in the field many times we don’t know who the enemy is and if we hear a noise, we have to be able to put the fire out fast. With InstaFire we can be cooking our meal and if need be simply suffocate the fire and it is out with no smoke."
