Well as the saying goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words" so hopefully that means a video is worth at least two thousand.  At any rate here are some video clips of me lighting various tinders this afternoon.  I tried to keep the file sizes as small as possible while still getting high enough resolution for you to zoom in and get a decent look as what going on.  Sorry for the shakey camera.  I was holding the camera in one hand and flicking the sparklite with the other.  Not an easy task.  <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
 SparkLite Tinder  Cotton Ball  Q-Tip  Toilet Paper  Paper Towel  T-Shirt    All-in-all I really like the Spark Lite.  I prefer a knife and a ferrocerium rod but not if I only have one hand. I have practices using a knife and ferro rod one-handed.  It can be done but not easily.  That a topic for another thread though.  Now if only the Spark Lite were made of aircraft aluminum instead of plastic.  Ah that would be great!  <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
