Swiss Ranger Volcano Stoves supplies may be drying up

It has been brought to my attention that the supply of the Swiss Ranger Volcano Stove and canteen sets my be drying up in this country. This is too bad, these are great items and were really better than any equivalent commercial product. I think I many have saved ONE for myself, and no doubt sold the rest of them I had way too cheap considering they may not be available soon. One of my suppliers has them on back order ( this is usually terminal for an item) and another has double their price on these. This all brings up an important point about military surplus, get it while you can because when it is gone it is gone for good.

Scientific Utility Brands International, Inc.

This company manufactures some products that I have found useful for out door use and Emergency preparation  . I have managed to secure a supply of a variety of their products and think you may find it them interesting. They  seem to be quite useful and well made as well as safer than most of the alternatives.  Of particular interest are the Magic Lamp, Magic Heat, and Magic Wick. The magic wick is one of the most useful fire starters aids I have found, they really burn and are easy to use and can be used more than once with some care. They can also be used by themselves for emergency light, signaling and cooking. The Magic Lamp works on paraffin oil and is a wonderful lamp to eat by, indoor or out. All of their products seem to put of no odor at all when burning which points to very pure ingredients. The items I have obtained are at least 4 -5 years old and do not seem to have lost any fluid or deteriorated.
So watch the video and check this stuff out. The company sells directly from their web site.
