Yes,you can. Just remember that some of these firestarters can leech wax, petroleum jelly, mineral oil etc. when warm. You may want to consider taping the Altids tin. Fire is so critical, I've not only packed redundant firestarting systems and tinder ( petroleum soaked cotton balls and sparklite tinders,) but a small supply of fatwood (aka Maya wood) for kindling. I expect someday to figure out how to pack those small bundles of firewood sold at the markets <img src="images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />.
