Swedish FireSteel is a Fire Starter
In lieu of a good old LED torchlight, you can always grab this Swedish FireSteel for emergency barbecues. Nothings gonna stop you as it will still function in rain and snow. Going for USD $15.99 and now back in stock at ThinkGeek
Originally developed for the Swedish Department of Defense, Swedish FireSteel is a flash of genius. Its nearly 3,000°C spark makes fire building easy in any weather, at any altitude. Used by a number of armies around the world, Swedish FireSteel’s dependability has already made it a favorite of survival experts, hunters, fishermen and campers. It has also found its way into cabins and backyards as a fool-proof way to light stoves and gas-barbecues. Amazingly enough it also works equally well when wet.

I used it and it was so awesome that it burned my hair off. Now I am bald.
