3 different ways for fire starter

You should have 3 different ways to start a fire. You never now when your matches are going to get wet. Here is a few ideas for your B.O.B. Steel wool and a 9v battery. All you have to do is touch the steel wool to the battery terminals and there you go instant fire. I have a magnesium fire starter kit all you have to do is shave a little off and create a spark with your knife and striker there you go fire. Then there is the standby a click lighter and some cotton balls soaked in petroleum jelly or wax.
I have a friend who took the wax from old candles and melted it down and put sawdust in it and then poured it into muffin cups and that works really good in rain or wet conditions. If you have any ideas please share them. I would like to have a few more for my B.O.B. You can never have enough survival skills and tips.
