L'allume-feu au magnésium; le gadget le plus efficace qu'il m'ait été donné d'utiliser. Lorsqu'il est réduit en poudre le magnésium s'enflamme au contact de la moindre étincelle. Le résultat donne une flamme éblouissante qui dégage une chaleur de 3 000 °C. L'allume-feu au magnésium prend la forme d'un petit bloc rectangulaire entièrement constitué de magnésium et d'une tige de métal (ferrocérium) intégrée, la tige nous permet de produire des étincelles lorsqu'on la frotte avec un couteau. 1, record 1, French, - allume%2Dfeu%20au%20magn%C3%A9sium
