Product Info for Numyth Vulcan Fire Piston V2

The Vulcan is precision CNC machined from an aluminum alloy and has an ultra tough hard anodized type III coating to protect it from scratches and general wear. The body has generous amounts of knurling to ensure that the fire piston stays in your hand securely, even when using gloves. The top of the fire piston features a removable cap that allows access to a watertight storage capsule, perfect for keeping your tinder or other small items safe and dry. Similar to a diesel engine, a fire piston works by rapidly compressing air and igniting a small piece of tinder held in place in the tinder notch. An ember is created instead of a flame, so relatively advanced fire starting skills are needed to take advantage of the ember once created.image

Beautifully machined device with key features included. I had to find the critical factors to get quasi reliable ignition; the little things are important. Tinder must be DRY (less than 5 pct moisture); charcloth seems to work best. Tube must be clean and piston orings lightly lubed;no excess. Test that the piston moves very freely with only air compression resistance. Holding ...
