Question 1

how long do the color packs last?

Accepted Answer

We always use 2 packets and that gives you 40 to 45 minutes. The other brands are pretty weak. These packets last long enough to really enjoy and the colors are brilliant. On New Years eve we all sat around a great camp fire and my son tossed 2 packets onto the fire. When the very vivid flames began our family members from young to old were stunned! We told them what it was and the smiles and laughs were truly priceless. Everyone began taking pictures and enjoyed the trickery. Its really worth the money. It lasts just long enough. I only buy the packets, the crystals fizzle out and the color is not like these packets. As the fire was winding down I had my son go the the front yard and light a paper lantern and it floated right over the house, jaws dropped and I had everyone go to the kitchen table and write out what their hopes for the new year were and that put a beautiful feeling to the start of our new year.. And I am still being told that I am the best Auntie ever. Between the mystic fire and paper lanterns I am still getting hugs. and a week ago my youngest niece called me on her lunch break to ask me where I bought both items. She showed her coworkers the photos and several of them wanted to buy some mystic fire and paper lanterns. Uncle Philip was the just the best, he had been making many beers disappear that evening and when the flames began his reaction was priceless! It ended a great family gathering on a fun and beautiful evening. Definitely a great new family tradition.

Question 2

What are these made out of? Are they safe for the environment?

Accepted Answer

Do you trust China not to send a tainted product? In other words no I would not advise using these inside I use all the chemicals involved I am a pyro technician. And a handle these chemicals you need to wear a respirator and protective clothing and gloves, does that sound safe for indoors?

Question 3

Can you then use the fire to roast marsh mellows if you use this product?

Accepted Answer

First, the colors ONLY show up if you have a very hot fire (a good, hot wood fire).  As a mom, I would NOT cook food over the fire afterward - the colors last awhile and they are made by poisonous material, so I'm not confident it would be safe for food.  I would roast marshmallows/hot dogs/whatever BEFORE using these. But I am not with the company and haven't read the MSDS, so it could technically be safe. This is just my intuition as a mom.

Question 4

Are these ok for use on a dura flame log?

Accepted Answer

Yes they are. I always use two regular wood logs and one dura flame log and it works perfectly. Makes for a beautiful fire.
