Exotac fireSLEEVE Review by Bruce Zawalsky

Review Summary

The Exotac Firesleeve is a waterproof sleeve designed to hold a BIC lighter and protect it from the elements. The Firesleeve has been designed specifically for use with a BIC lighter and is 100% waterproof, as it has passed the "24-hour rule," which involves submerging the item in water for 24 hours. The reviewer is Bruce Zawalsky, Chief Instructor of the Boreal Wilderness Institute, and has firsthand experience using the Firesleeve in wet environments on the East and West Coasts of North America.

In terms of drawbacks, the reviewer notes that the Firesleeve adds additional weight to the lighter and can be somewhat difficult to remove from the lighter. However, the reviewer also mentions that the Firesleeve has a toggle on both ends, which allows it to be attached to clothing or gear for easy carrying. The reviewer also mentions that the Firesleeve has a replaceable design, so the BIC lighter can be removed and replaced when it runs out.

Overall, the review of the Exotac Firesleeve is positive, and the reviewer recommends it as a useful survival item, especially in wet environments. The reviewer notes that the Firesleeve is one of three fire-starting items that he always carry and emphasizes the importance of having multiple fire-starting options in a survival situation.
