TORCH

FEATURES


Our product, Torch, is a fire-starting device that is equal parts durable, reliable, and reusable. Torch incorporates a nichrome heating element housed within a heat proof bowl that allows the user to pack a substantial amount of kindling into a contained environment (the bowl) and ignite it with the sustained heat of the nichrome ignitor. Torch also has a wood shaver built in (think: manual pencil sharpener) that allows for the user to break down a wide variety of stick sizes into smaller, more practical tinder and kindling. Yet another element incorporated into torch is a built in LED lantern. This provides the user with a light source that is far more dispersed than a headlamp, the traditional source of light for back packers, and allows for both ambient lighting, and a way to illuminate a larger portion of ones campsite or surroundings for prolonged periods. 

​

FUNCTIONALITY

​

Every element of Torch has been designed with the fire starting process in mind, from gathering materials to ignition, and is centered around eliminating common struggles associated with lighting a fire. The lantern provides the user with a light source that is far more useful for scouring ones surroundings for wood and kindling than the focused beam a headlamp. Should a user find themselves in an environment where kindling is in short supply, the wood shaver turns nearly any stick into a viable size for starting fire. The nichrome heating element functions as a prolonged source of heat, allowing for dehydration and combustion of even the wettest material, and the bowl which it is housed in allows the user to shelter their fledgling flame from wind, rain, and snow, until it reaches the size that it can still remain burning in inclement conditions. Essentially, through its combination of innovated features, Torch solves a multitude of fire-starting problems, meaning users have access to fire, in any environment, under the harshest conditions.

DESIGN

Torch has been designed to be both remarkably reliable and elegantly robust. Aesthetically speaking, the goal was to give Torch a tactical look, one that would reflect the precision and pragmatism with which it was developed. Manufacturing wise, Torch is equal parts simple and durable, meaning that the device will not fail, even in the harshest conditions.
