Hi All,
I was wondering what people used to light their camping stove during the winter or when conditions aren't exactly perfect (wind / rain / whatever)? I recently lost my butane lighter and wanted to replace it. I find that butane lighters don't operate that well when it's very cold outside (simple physics, alas). I'm currently looking at these two options:
Butane Lighter
Firesteel Fire starter
Or do you use simple matches (kinda booooring if you ask me and might not be ideal in high winds)
