Fresnel Lens Fire Starter
Best Glide ASE
The Fresnel Lens Fire Starter is a great back up fire starter and will fit
practically anywhere. It is small, flat, light and cheap. Some practice is required and of course,
one needs a sunny day for it to work. We do not recommend the
Fresnel Lens as a primary fire starting tool, but as an addition to an already supplied kit.
The Fresnel Lens Fire Starter is more commonly known as a credit card magnifier. However, our version has 4 power magnification, much more than the 2X or 3X of standard credit card magnifiers.
The Fresnel Lens
has been used for years in various applications,
most notably the Light House Lens. Using a Fresnel Lens allows the light of the light house to be magnified numerous times and still be relatively small. It is a truly
amazing invention.
Our Fresnel Lens
is made of optical pvc, is .4mm think and weighs 5.5
grams. In short, it is the size of a very thin
credit card. The Fresnel Lens Fire Starter comes with a red protective case and can be purchased individually or in bulk at discount prices. We include the Fresnel Lens as standard equipment
in several of our survival kits.
