{"product_id":"exotac-pocket-fire-kit","title":"Exotac Pocket Fire Kit","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe Exotac Pocket Fire Kit is a compact, multi-method fire-starting system built for overlanders, backpackers, and emergency preparedness kits. It combines a polySTRIKER ferro rod, a BIC Mini lighter protected by a fireSLEEVE, stormproof matches with dedicated striking surfaces, quickLIGHT prepared tinder, and tinderZIP zipper pulls, all organized in a single zippered pouch measuring 8 in × 5 in × 3 in and weighing 10 oz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRedundancy That Earns Its Weight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost fire-starting failures happen because a single method meets the one condition it cannot handle: a wet match, a depleted lighter, a ferro rod dropped in the dark. The Pocket Fire Kit addresses that directly by pairing spark, flame, stormproof matches, and prepared tinder in one organized system. Each method backs up the others, so a wet or empty ignition source does not end the attempt. For a vehicle emergency kit or a day pack carried into unpredictable terrain, that layered redundancy is the difference between a reliable fire and a frustrating one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt-In Tinder You Will Not Forget at Camp\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tinderZIP zipper pulls are made with a waterproof, flammable inner core, turning the pouch's own hardware into a tinder source. The quickLIGHT prepared tinder adds another ready-to-light option. Because both are part of the kit itself rather than loose items packed separately, they are available whenever the pouch is. No digging through a bag to find tinder that got left behind.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eOrganized and Ready to Clip On\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDedicated internal pockets keep the fireSLEEVE, stormproof matches, and quickLIGHT separated and immediately identifiable under stress. The pouch is sized to fit a cargo pocket, a chest rig, or a day pack without dominating the space, and it can clip directly to a belt loop or pack strap so fire-starting gear stays on the body rather than buried in a bag. The stormproof matches include their own dedicated striking surfaces inside the pouch, so they remain fully functional without a separate MATCHCAP XL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epolySTRIKER ferro rod:\u003c\/strong\u003e spark-based ignition included in the kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003efireSLEEVE-protected BIC Mini:\u003c\/strong\u003e keeps a BIC Mini lighter ready for fast flame\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStormproof matches with dedicated striking surfaces:\u003c\/strong\u003e functional without a separate match case\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003equickLIGHT prepared tinder:\u003c\/strong\u003e reliable, ready-to-light tinder included\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003etinderZIP zipper pulls:\u003c\/strong\u003e waterproof, flammable inner core doubles as a tinder source\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMade in Atlanta, Georgia, USA:\u003c\/strong\u003e covered by Exotac's limited lifetime warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e10 oz\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e8 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e5 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e3 in\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eContents\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003epolySTRIKER, fireSLEEVE with BIC Mini, stormproof matches, quickLIGHT tinder, tinderZIP zipper pulls, dedicated match-striking surfaces\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eOrigin\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eMade in Atlanta, Georgia, USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eWarranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eLimited lifetime warranty\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe Pocket Fire Kit suits overlanders, backpackers, hunters, and anyone building a vehicle emergency kit or chest-rig loadout who wants multiple independent ignition methods in a single organized pouch. It is sized for cargo pockets, day packs, and chest rigs, and it clips to belt loops or pack straps for immediate access.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThe Pocket Fire Kit is not a minimalist single-tool fire starter. At 10 oz and 8 in × 5 in × 3 in, it is sized for packs and rigs rather than ultralight kits where every gram is counted. It does not replace a full survival kit and does not include navigation, shelter, or signaling components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDoes the Pocket Fire Kit include a BIC lighter, or is the lighter sold separately?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Pocket Fire Kit includes a BIC Mini lighter already seated inside the fireSLEEVE. The fireSLEEVE is designed to protect and carry a BIC Mini, and the lighter is listed as part of the kit's contents alongside the polySTRIKER, stormproof matches, quickLIGHT tinder, and tinderZIP zipper pulls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat is a tinderZIP, and how do you use it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe tinderZIP zipper pulls on the Pocket Fire Kit have a waterproof, flammable inner core. When you need tinder, you can pull a tinderZIP from the zipper and use it as a fire-starting material. This gives the pouch a built-in tinder source that is always present and does not need to be packed separately.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDo the stormproof matches require a separate MATCHCAP XL to work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eNo. The Pocket Fire Kit includes dedicated match-striking surfaces inside the pouch, so the stormproof matches are fully functional without a MATCHCAP XL or any other separate case. The striking surfaces are integrated into the kit's organization so they are available whenever the matches are.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eHow does the Pocket Fire Kit attach to a pack or rig?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe Pocket Fire Kit is designed to clip to a belt loop, pack strap, or chest rig for immediate access. At 8 in × 5 in × 3 in, it is compact enough to ride inside a cargo pocket or day pack without taking up the majority of the available space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eIs there a California Proposition 65 warning for this product?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eYes. The Pocket Fire Kit carries a California Proposition 65 warning for exposure to chemicals including carbon monoxide, lead, and lead components, which are known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.
