Disappointed,
I thought these flares came in a package of 3. I order a quantity of 2 thinking I would get 6 flares. I only received 2 individual flares. I think the price of $5.50 per single flare is extremely high.

|Misdirection,
I also thought, based upon the picture of a 3 piece package, that I was getting 3 flares, not one, for $5. This is ridiculously high for any burn it up product….regardless of the fact that it’s a safety item. I have bought similar flares before which had a nail on the bottom for $1.25 apiece, which is a little better than the price I thought I was paying for 3 of these items…not for 1! Don’t buy these flares here at this price…because with shipping they are a complete rob! Go support your local auto supply store and buy them there.

|Functional,
I take thes flares out on my hikes/camps for emergency signal use, scaring off animals and if needed, aiding lighting fires. It will cater to these three needs sufficiently. I reccomend wrapping these up in plastic wrap and a bit of tape to increase how water proof they are (you can twist and tear of the top for quick access). When lit the flame is .75″ approx wide and 3.5″ approx long. and very bright. It will impare your vision for a few moments if you look directly at it up close, even in daylight. 15 minutes burn time approx.
My only comlpain is the striking surface, contained within the plactic cap. Mine mostly stayed on but some chipped off without use on two of them, giving me less striking material for the tip of the flare. Still useable.
3 flares came with this purchase.
