Fancier the better👍 Best idea I got from Robin's vids was his orange mat that he uses.

My set up is similar to yours.. I use the soto as my no1 lighting system. I olso carry a clipper lighter ( can easily be dried if it gets wet and the spark system can be removed and used if the gas runs out ) . A dry container and matches as a third option. I have a ferro rod in my fire making kit. Though that's really just for showing off and bushcraft. Take care out there.

Good to hear another Soto fan. The Ferro rod is fine for the alcohol stoves but you need a third hand for the gas stove to use one😁. I have enough problems with the hands I have. Thanks for watching

I'd say that the ferro rod is my go to method in normal cases, partly to maintain the skill since it takes some practice. I do keep a generic lighter or an old film canister with matches packed in my stoves as a backup if I feel lazy or if conditions are unfavourable for the rod. But as you say the quality of the ferro rods may vary a lot. Some are pure garbage, and more often than not the striker that comes with the rods a shit, even for the good rods. So far the only exception I've experienced is 'Light my fire'. Cheers Ewen!

Cheers! That is two people in favour of Ferro rods. Maybe I should dig out mine out and give it another chance. I also have a 35mm case with matches somewhere.

@RedswedeOutdoors Yeah. Good advice, thanks The one handed jobs are the best for me and I don't know how long this will take to get back to normal Even once I get my dexterity back, a Ferro rod isn't much use for a gas or petrol stove that needs turned on with one hand and lit with the other. I don't use gas much but I do have my edelrid mutifuel that fits in the 27.
