Both the sparkie and the wetfire tinder are junk, bought both, sparkie was nearly dead after lighting a couple fires, also hard to turn the rod over, in efficient design.
Wetfire wouldn't start from sparkie sparks or even a bic lighter held to its sruface (powdered or whole) they just shrivelled and blackened.
I am an ultralight backpacker and carry only 1 type of tinder. I do carry the sparkie as my main firestarter and was wondering if I should carry the Wetfire tinder or military trioxane firestarter as tinder. (I always use natural tinder first so it would be my backup firestarter) Thanks! -Nighthawk
lol mine was useless it wasnt opened hehehe but they do make outstanding blastmatch . your wetfire is white color mine was dark grey in color maybe to changed the product?
I used the wetfire for some time now and the sparkie wetfire burns great, and lighting it is no problem.
