I recently got a new turboflame 2 for my BOB. Before fitting it in my bob i thought i would use it for a few months to test it. After 3-4 month the ignitor has packed up. Sent an e-mail to the g a reply will let you know the out come.
Always test your kit before putting your life in its operation.
I've got the basic Turboflame, but it's so powerful it incinerates any tinder I have. I find it's easier to go straight to small kindling with them.

I have 4 or 5 disposable lighters in each kit, I think i will be going back to my zippo, its a good few years old and still going strong.
