Discover the homemade outdoor essentials Carlos is putting together. Built strictly for outdoor use, each starter is formulated with natural beeswax to remain waterproof and light instantly even in damp conditions.

Tinder and fibers

Featuring dry tinder, charcloth, cotton balls, cotton paste, jute fiber, jute cups, and waxed jute fire starters engineered for quick sparks.

Woods and powders

Sourced natural kindling including fatwood bundles wrapped in jute, crunchy saved pine bars, pine dust, and bundles of seasoned pine sticks.

Plugs and strikers

Heavy-duty ignition gear like waterproof dipped matches, fire starter biscuits, fire plugs, magnesium triangles, and mixed starter bags.

Built for rugged outdoor use only

Whether you are hiking through wet weather, lighting a campsite fire pit, or packing an emergency bug-out bag, El Diablo's homemade starters eliminate the frustration of lighting wet wood. Even the most inexperienced camper can get a roaring fire going quickly.

The beeswax advantage

Carlos coats his homemade starters in pure beeswax to lock out moisture entirely. Unlike generic kindling or flimsy paper matches that fail when damp, our starters resist rain, snow, and humidity to provide sustained burn times right when you need warmth most.
