  It lasts a lot longer and isn’t nearly as dangerous since it isn’t an open flame.

  They sell punk for this. They look like incense sticks without any scent. Just a smoldering slow burning stick, used to light fireworks with.

    Mosquito coils work excellent as well.

    They do now. For those of us that still speak the old magic, we know that a lit cigarette was the original punk.

  I once found a full pack of cigarettes on the ground at age ~10. I quickly figured out that lighting it on fire and using the cigarette to set off fireworks was so much easier than using a lighter. I didn’t even think of smoking it, I just left it lit on the ground and used it as a lighter.

  I didn’t understand why my parents were so worried when they found out lol.
