Emergency fire kit flame sources, tinder sources and some simple items to help overall. Everything fits in an Altoids tin. Links are included for examples and just in case you want to purchase. I had most of this stuff already, I only bought a couple things I didn't have on hand. You can spend as much or as little as you want. I think I ended up spending $7 for the stuff I didn't have on hand. The lighter linked is an example, I used a different one, less expensive. I got a pair a while back, and keep one on the bike.
