When looking for reliable fire starters, you want to find one that has a long shelf life and starts fires fast. Retailer Depot Outdoors recommends QuickSurvive Fire Starters. They are food safe, 100% waterproof and have a 30 year shelf life. These fire sticks will burn for 10 minutes at 750 degrees, that’s more than enough firepower to get your fire going quickly. We tried them out for ourselves in this quick review.

The QuickSurvive Fire Starters come in an easy open re-sealable pouch and there are three fire starters in each. The brush pile was a bit damp from recent wet weather. I placed the starters at various locations and they all lite up easily using a butane lighter. There was nothing else to do but watch because the fire took off like gangbusters.

These fire starters are low cost, weigh next to nothing and are very easy to light. The fire took off right-away with no other attention needed.

We recommend QuickSurvive Fire Starters on your next outdoor adventure.
