Light My Fire brand was founded in 1995 by Michael Odqvist, who began its expansion by spreading a product known among Guatemalans as MayaSticks. The kindling is in the shape of individual sticks made of Montezuma pine wood, which grows exclusively in Guatemala and parts of Mexico. The high resin content means that the wood fires up almost immediately, both in sub-zero temperatures and in rain or high humidity. The manufacturer, a few years after the success of MayaSticks, also introduced the Tinder-on-a-Rope product, which has a slightly different use, but has the same practical properties as MayaSticks. Chips from the logs are flammable, so all you need to light them is flint or any other source of flame with a minimum intensity - a few sparks are enough.
Light My Fire is appreciated by all enthusiasts of being close to nature. They appreciate the ease of starting the fire, the fully natural origin of most raw materials and the excellent quality of individual products. One of them is Fire BioArmy, in which the manufacturer used a 9 mm-thick flint, providing up to 12,000 sticks without losing the ease of lighting. Interestingly, the tinder produces sparks with a temperature of up to 3,000 degrees Celsius, which is why it is able to ignite the most humid wood on a rainy day.
