One challenge in a survival situation – short or long-term, is providing yourself light at night.
While traditional options – kerosene and hurricane lamps, candles and alcohol lamps – are always available, they pose issues in terms of safety.
If something breaks, falls or gets tipped over the liquid fuel inside can spill and create an acute fire hazard. It also can be sloppy filling them back up, especially if your environment is less than optimal.
A relatively new option that is increasing in popularity is gel fuel, because it does not spill or splash, lights easily and burns for hours.
