Strike Igniter

Flick the Strike Igniter from MSR and sparks will be flying before you know it. This lightweight, weather-resistant igniter can light canister or liquid fuel stoves in no time. Small enough to fit on a key chain, yet serious enough to produce 5500° F sparks, this little fellow will join you for any camping trip where matches are either too dangerous or not viable. Its lifespan extends well over 3,000 sparks so you'll be cooking with the Strike Igniter for years to come. Oh, and did we mention the bottle-opener? Priorities, priorities.

Decent fire starter.

A very reliable fire starter. Certainly on the more expensive side, but high quality. I noticed some people complained about not being able to use the striker efficiently. In my experience its much easier to use the back of a knife blade or saw blade on a Leatherman or SAK as the striker. It works much better.

Just unreliable for my skill level

I get a spark once in a while, but no way would I rely on this when I need to get warm and fed ASAP, cold and or tired.

nice striker

really nice striker - the cord is great so what you done loose the two parts & the magnet holding them together is a very cleaver design. This is a little heavier then others & I feel like the 'bottle opener' could use a redesign, maybe into a can opener? That said, this is the igniter I reach for most often when packing for a trip. Highly recommended.

they claim you can use

they claim you can use it with the MSR wind burner, but it will only light this stove about one out of 10 strikes , which is unfortunate.

This is a backup to

This is a backup to the one I already own. Two is one and one is none!! I’ve used my first one many times and was able to ignite dried grass,wood chips and a feather stick. Another good kindle is cotton ball covered in vaseline. I like that it’s compact,lite and the striker is tethered. I used this when I went to Northern Nevada,Utah,Idaho,Montana and Wyoming. Especially came in handy in Idaho when it snowed in the middle of June!! Started many fires and also my backpack stove. This is an item I highly recommend. I have other msr equipment and been very happy with the quality of msr products. In fact I still have the alpine kitchen set since 2001. I’ve added a msr plate and cooking pan to the alpine set and all nestle together and fit in the carry sack. I also bought a msr fork, spoon and knife to take when I go backpacking, hunting and camping.

Great product

good striker, I like the extra length in the cord allows freer movement while lighting stove.

only one side

only one side creates the little fire light. The other side is useless...I really can't start a fire with that side. I guess that side is supposed to be a beer opener, but it is also hard to open a beer. Alcohol increases higher chance of mountain sickness in high altitude, so I don't drink when I am there. Hopefully this two sticks don't fail me in a raining day when I need to start fire to boil water.

Simple and reliable spark.

Perfect size and easy to use. No worries about getting that fire started when needed.

I would buy this product again and again!

I prefer this over matches or a lighter because it ignites my stove in all weather conditions
