Instafire Review: Start fires instantly with no hassle

This weekend I had the opportunity to test out Instafire for review.  It’s claimed to burn at nearly 1,000 degrees and to easily be lit in the ice, snow, rain and even burn wet wood.  Unfortunately it is the middle of spring and there is no ice or wet wood at our place.  So for demonstration purposes I grabbed a bowl of ice from the freezer to simulate ice and snow, and I soaked some firewood in a bucket of water to simulate wet wood.  Here are the results:

1.  I used a bowl of ice from the house to simulate how instafire can even be lit on snow or ice

2.  I soaked some firewood in a bucket of water to simulate how it can even burn wet wood

3. Simply pour some into a pile

4. Light instafire with a match or lighter.

5. Stack firewood around the flame close enough for the flame to burn it but not so close to smother the flame

6. Wet wood will take some time as instafire gets hot and drys out the wood

7. After a few minutes the wood is very hot and dried out from instafire, now you’ve got a nice little fire going

• Instafire lights wet wood (burns nearly 1,000 degrees)
• Burns on snow, water, or ice
• Nonvolatile – no flareups
• Long burn time 10-15 minutes
• Waterproof pouch
• No harmful chemicals
• Safe to store near food
• Leftover ash is a natural fertilizer

I will be sure to bring some Instafire next time I go camping.  You can get instafire here

Enjoy!
