## Description

Hedge your bets against the weather with a UCO Stormproof Match Kit. Stormproof Matches are windproof, waterproof, light up quickly and consistently in driving rain, heavy winds, and falling snow with a burn time of up to 15 seconds-plus they will relight after being submerged in water. Each kit includes 25 Stormproof Matches, 3 strikers, and a cotton ball inside a waterproof case that floats. The waterproof, durable ABS plastic case can hold up to 40 Stormproof Matches (alternate the match tips with some facing up and some facing down) for longer trips for when you need the added security to build a fire. Being able to reliably make a fire is vital for cooking, generating warmth, and in survival situations, making signal fires. UCO Stormproof Matches are perfect for camping, emergency kits, and should be part of every 10 Essentials check list. If a match becomes wet, just wipe dry before use. If a striker becomes wet, the striker will not work, but needs to dry first so that the surface is once again firm, so use a spare striker (2 spares included) until then. Matches and strikers will last for many years as long as they remain dry and protected from the elements inside the waterproof case or inside a sealed plastic bag. Easily refill your Stormproof Match Kit with UCO Stormproof Matches sold in single (25 matches) or twin-packs (50 matches). Length of match: 2.75 inches (7 cm); Kit Weight: 1.7 oz. (48 g). Designed in Seattle, Made in India. 1-year manufacturer's warranty.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will the matches still work if the striker pad gets wet?**
A: No, but they come with four or five extra strikers. I've never tried to wet a striker and then let it dry out to see if it works again.

**Q: Does it expire? How long is the shelf life before it doesn't spark up?**
A: If the strike pad is inside the container and the container remains sealed, the Match Kit will continue to function well into the next couple of decades.  I have had several similar purchased in the 80's that are still like new.

**Q: are these matches strike anywear matches?**
A: There are no "stormproof" strike-anywhere matches available. However, UCO makes excellent regular strike anywhere matches. With a quick dip in turpentine, nail polish or wax, you can make excellent water-resistant strike-anywhere matches.I also like to include some of the coated strike-anywhere matches with my stromproof matches. This way, should all my strikes become wet, you can use a strike anywhere match to light up a stromproof match!And btw, if you can swing the price, ($28, very reasonable, when you see the quality,) check out K&M matchcases. They're waterproof to 2,000psi, easily open with cold, stiff or injured hands, and have a very high quality button compass installed. I'm tight with a buck, but the K&M's quality is unbelievably high.

**Q: Can you tell me the longest match length this container will hold? Thank you**
A: I just measured the container it is 2 7/8" long so i would say 2 3/4" is the longest length of match you could fit in this container. Hope that helps.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ UCO Stormproof matches
*by J***D on April 23, 2014*

I have used these matches for over a year now and have had great success with them. They are very robust matches that have a waterproof coating, have an extended burn time and are nearly impossible to put out once lit. I think the biggest plus they have going for them is that they can be used in windy conditions without your ignition source being blown out. Once lit, these matches can be submerged in water or dirt and will reignite. Amazing! Are they perfect? No. But they are the best matches I have found so far. Can you soak the matches and the striker in water for 30 minutes and still use them? Absolutely not. Find me a match and striker that can do that. I have never had one fail to light and I have never broken the match stick in half when trying to strike it. If you know how to PROPERLY strike a match, then you should never break one. The case is very stout and from my experience in wet conditions, is waterproof. However, if you get the striker located on outside of the case wet then it won't work. Imagine that. Good thing it comes with two strikers sealed in plastic located inside the case. I do wish the case was a little smaller but that would also mean carrying fewer matches. It is a small complaint and definitely not a deal breaker by any means. If you want a match that is "easy" to light then get some strike anywhere matches or something along those lines. But understand those types of matches are not going to perform as well as these matches do in less than ideal conditions.
