## Questions & Answers

**Q: how loud is the whistle? dB?**
A: I d’loaded a dB meter for my phone and found 104dB max on the app. 

I hope that helps.

**Q: How does it  start the fire?**
A: One of the rods is coated with magnesium, the other is just steel. A strong scrape causes sparks of burning magnesium. Directing the sparks onto some kindling (I like to use a boll of dryer lint and some shredded paper) starts the fire. 

This product has only a light coating of magnesium. I strapped it all off to get a fire going when I was testing it out. 

I would recommend it as an emergency fire starter only. I don't think even a well-practiced person could get more than 2-3 fires going with this striker. But the addition of the whistle and compass makes it a product worth having in an emergency kit.

**Q: What is the rope for ?**
A: I also want to know what the ropes are for.  I see the black cord that holds the two parts together (on each set). What are the orange and gray Fire Paracord Ropes for??

**Q: Can this be stored in a hot attic around 120F for a year?**
A: Yes, high heat, intense cold, water will not affect flint and steel!
