how does the fire stater work?

Persistence, the cylindrical apparatus must be scraped free of its black coating before sparks can occur. A little frustrating and time consuming at first but will certainly satisfy your needs once you figure it out.

Honestly I was striking it all wrong when I first got it and it broke but it still strikes the rod is just a little shorter.

Haven't had it out in the field yet so I haven't started a lot of fires with it. I throws a lot of sparks-- more than other fire starters I've successfully used in the past. More sparks = easier fire starting, right?

Works quite nicely. Don't have much experience using fire starters but I have used this one to make a few good fires. Worth the few bucks it cost.

It is a small steel rod. You scrape your knife down it to create a spark. A cotton ball soaked in petroleum jelly will light easily and burn for 3-4 min. This can be used to start a fire. Hope this helped.

Not very well. Tried with dry cedar shavings, dry ripped paper towel, dry paper, then finally the same paper with kerosene on it... Nothing. Lots of sparks tho...sure was pretty.

You scrape the flint on one of nobs on the other side of the blade really hard

Sure, as long as the files or data or Apps are not written for the Fire Operating system (based on Android, but not exactly the same).

Search my many answers to this - the short answer is YES; BUT you must verify that you have the correct download format AND viewer selectionsIt may not work the first time, so try it and make sure, before you get on the flightThis worked for -Fire viewerOther combinations have failed ...

Nothing is necessary for this torch to work (other than fuel). It has NO safety (which is nice). You simply turn the knob to open/dispense fuel (you'll hear a little hiss) then press the ignition button (you'll hear a click) and boom... you have a constantly-on flame. To extinguish the flame simply turn the knob back in the "off" position to close/turn the fuel off. Hope that helps describe it's exact functionality! :-)

It all depends on what your using it for, I use it for fire responses and have it programmed and fall under our licensure there but as far as I know you don't need one just check with your local area

The metal ring base does not get hot. In fact I wanted to know how hot the floor under the unit became when the fire was burning. I was able to rest my hand on the floor under the fire pit while it was being used.

Lighting the torch involves a series of three switches (for safety). They are labeled 1, 2, & 3. You pull the safety switched labeled 1, then press the trigger labeled 2, and move the gas slider labeled 3 to the ON position. It's actually simple; though the instruction may make it sound more complicated that it really is.

I have no idea. I would think that it should stop when it is not connected. I would go down to the fire dept and ask them. They might come over and have a look. They didfor me when I couldn't figure out how to SOS one t the old one. Good luck.

The fire stat feature works in conjuction with the switch. Yes it can be set to different attic tempatures. Mine is set at 90deg.

You need to contact the Firestone help center. They can give you the answer!!!

They will start a fire in a few seconds. Make sure the grooved side is facing the sun when starting a fire (and facing you when reading). Makes a big difference.

No it doesn't. But the fire does look pretty and it does give quite a bit of heat.

There is a switch in the rear of the fireplace so you can watch the fire in warm weather. If you turn on the unit and see flames but no heat, flip the switch. The round knob next it adjusts the temperature.

It will cycle the heater on and off to maintain the set temperature. The simulated fire will remain on.

It's very easy, turn everything on, w/ on hand push in red button below screen, w/other use (your own stuff) a long match, long bic lighter etc; there is a brass point at the base of the screen, while holding red button, hold flame to the point. Hold it just till you start to see a red glow.
