UCO Titan Stormproof Matches

These matches are absolutely ridiculous. They are huge. They look awesome in their yellow-orange-brown vest. Once you light one, YOU CANNOT PUT IT OUT. You cannot blow it out, and it burns under water. If you drop it it will set on fire whatever you dropped it on, and there is nothing you can do about it.If you absolutely positively have to get a fire started, use a Titan match. If you can't light it with one of these, you really have nobody to blame except yourself.Get some. For your inner pyromaniac. You will grin ear to ear every time you use one.In the attached image, top to bottom:- Normal match- Normal (non-titan) UCO storm match- UCO Titan storm match- PencilThe squares are 1/2-inch. The ruler is metric.

These are by FAR the best matches I have every used. I used to keep cashes of strike anywhere matches in various backpacks, vehicles and bags. No longer. I have replaced all of them with these matches.The UCO matches are made of MUCH thicker wood then normal matches. So I can carry less then I used to because these are bigger and burn much longer due to having more wood to burn and more chemical compound to keep everything going. I would say striking one of these matches would be like striking 6 or 7 regular matches at once. Plus the UCO matches are waterproof. When you light these you cannot put them out. Put them under water, bury them in the dirt, stomp on them…you literally cannot put these out after they start burning. Which is exactly what I want. I will not use these to light candles at home. If I am out in the woods and my tinder is damp and my hands are shaking from the cold; I don’t want a little flame to get my fire going. I want a handheld inferno. That’s what you get with these matches. They burn so hot it will surprise you the first time you light one.If you are looking for quality matches for a camping or survival situation, buy these. You will not find better quality, longer burning or hotter burning matches out there. No other matches I have found even come close to these. If you ever think your safety or life might depend on your ability to light a fire, buy these matches.

They work as advertised. They are near impossible to distinguish, even submerging it in water won't extinguish it. They smell pretty awful when burning. Don't light one indoors, or you'll regret it. It will stink up the whole house in a matter of seconds and fill the room with smoke, and you won't be able to put it out.

These are awesome matches. Like the original UCO Stormproof Matches, these are virtually inextinguishable. Once lit they'll burn til all the chemical is gone. They burn longer than the smaller original matches due to their size. I won't elaborate much about them; they are simply gigantic versions of the ones you already know.Bottom line: Would I choose these over the original? No, probably not. They're really overkill. If you do your fire prep correctly you should only need a few moments of open flame. These burn a little longer but they're much bigger. You could fit 25-30 (perhaps more) of the regular Stormproof Matches in the same amount of space and get twice as many fires. That's no knock on these, they're great.In a survival kit where you need a bulletproof way to make fire these might be a good option. Again, they're a bit bulky but if you can't get a fire going with these Titan matches you should probably stay at home.

if you are a preper, Hiker, camper, or you like cool things then you need to buy these.Perfect for all of the above and a lot of fun.Make sure you buy at least 2 boxes as you will use most of the first box when you get thembecause these are just as cool as Sliced Bread.

These matches burn with a large hot flame and continue to burn even after being fully submerged underwater. Once re-exposed to air they will reignite into a flame.The wood stick is coated and will continue to burn after the match head has gone out. One additional important thing that should be noted is that they smoke profusely and cannot be used indoors or in any partially enclosed structure due to a high sulfur content, they will fumigate you. However for my purposes I prefer these smoky matches over some of the smokeless kind because I use them to deodorize my garage. I have a couple of shop cats that live in my garage and even though they use a litter box sometimes it just smells and one of these matches completely deodorizers the garage until the next time the cats drop the bomb.

When you absolutely need to get a fire going ASAP, this will do it. I'm surprised they aren't more expensive because personally, I don't think you could pay me enough to work in the factory that produces these matches. lol almost scary...

This is basically a self lighting giant sparkler. It is awesome. Use caution lighting this under a smoke alarm. Smoke output is appreciable. I bet this thing would burn underwater. Bought a few boxes for shtf.
