    If you use a small pan (like the single egg ones) and an electric hot plate to melt the petroleum jelly, it will saturate the entire cotten ball. Remove it with tweezers and put it on an aluminum foil sheet to cool, then wrap them in the foil to contain the petroleum. These WILL drip when lit, which will soak into things below it and absolutely torch anything above it like napalm. I have never once failed to start a fire with these, even with logs taken straight from snow. But definitely DO NOT breathe the black smoke in! Note that these can actually be a little harder to light because they are so saturated. I carry dry cotten balls and soaked cotton balls, then wrap a soaked on in a dry one before lighting it.

    That was interesting. The deer poop experiment was akin to the burning of buffalo/cow "chips" in an old western. I am guessing that winter deer pellets might work better due to the more wood fiberous diet. The dryer lint can burn well but it does not last. Thanks for the video.

    I've been going to try hand sanitizer, I actually had a bottle in my hot tent last winter as a backup to try but I only ever used it to clean my hands lol. I did use vaseline and cotton balls a few times I usually have a old pill bottle full of these in my pack , light weight and works great. I have used dryer lint , but I honestly don't find it works well, pretty much the experience you had, need to add something I've added Vaseline too. Interesting to use as a insect repellent might try that. Ive always wanted to try battery and steel wool, but hasn't seem practical to carry along, after seeing your video I think ill just keep in the memory banks lol. Can't light my potato chips they are too good lol. Great video interesting for sure. Hope you have an awesome week

    @kbjerke 3 дня назад

    Awesome demonstration, Jen! I use the cotton ball/Vaseline starters all the time at home for the wood stove, BBQ, smoker, et al. My method is to reverse a baggie, put my hand inside, scoop out a blob of Vaseline and turn the bag right side out again before inserting a dozen or so cotton balls, and zipping it up. NO MESS on the hands while massaging it all together. Also - the steel wool needs to be 0000 (four ought) in order to work. It has much more surface area and works *extremely* well. I save my wife's old candle jars, melt the remains on the wood stove, and pour the paraffin over several layers of paper towel. I let it cool and cut into strips to put in my survival pack. Also useful for starting a bigger campfire or bonfire. Thanks for the video, Jen!! Hope you're staying dry!! We're waterlogged here just above Newmarket!! ❤❤

      00 and 000 may also work, and are less prone to rusting from humidity, but I haven't tried them recently. Also. The battery only needs so contact the wool for a brief moment; you could also quickly slide the battery along the wool for minimal discharge time, but a wide ignition area.
