What is meant by the term stormproof?
Stormproof means that these matches will light in high winds and wet conditions from rain, sleet, or snow. They will even continue to burn after being completely submerged in water.
How many Stormproof Matches come in the pack?
Each pack comes with 25 matches.
How long do these Stormproof Matches burn?
These matches burn for up to 25 seconds. In field testing, Joshua (GB2) has found 15-seconds to be the minimum burn time necessary to consistently to dry out and ignite damp tinder.
Using Matches:
CAUTION:Â For outdoor use by adults only. Carefully monitor lit matches until completely burned. Store extra strikers in protective sleeves after use to keep dry. Store matches separately from strikers to prevent accidental ignition.
Performance Tips:
- For lighting a match, it is ideal if the striker is a firm surface which can usually be achieved by just closing the box.
- If striker and box become wet, the striker will still work, but needs to dry first so that the surface is once again firm. Use a spare striker until then.
- If matches become wet, just wipe dry before use.
Safety Tips:
- Strike away from the body or in a downwards position. Be careful of bystanders.
- Be careful when striking the match since sparks can fly off the igniting head.
- After using the match, run it in water to be certain that it will not light anything else on fire.

You can light these, submerge them in water, and when removed from the water they’re still lit……still lit, let that sink in. These are ESSENTIAL to every single fire kit out there. Watch Joshuas video on YouTube on how to make a super match with a couple of these. Those super matches are literally a FOREST FLARE.
