titanLIGHT™ Wick (2 Pack)
The wick included with the titanLIGHT ™ should last a very long time if maintained properly. When the wick looks worn or wispy simply pull more wick out from the top and trim with a sharp pair of scissors. If the wick binds, you may need to remove the fuel cap and the cotton to free the wick enough to pull through. Once you've achieved the proper length (top of the flameguard), fold the wick over between layers of cotton balls and replace the fuel cap.
Replacing the wick requires patience and a sharp pair of scissors.
"A prudent person foresees danger ahead and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences. - Proverbs 27:12"
Remove the flame guard by pressing out the brass pin while holding the guard down.
Remove cotton from inside body of lighter (use a few paper towels to absorb extra lighter fluid).
Pull old wick out.
If necessary, clean wick hole with alcohol with a cotton swab.
Trim the end of the new wick at a 45 degree angle with a sharp pair of scissors.
Wet the cut end of the wick with alcohol or a small amount of water.
While holding the cut end, pull on the opposite end of the wick to stretch it and reduce its cross-section.
Insert new wick from the outside through the top of the lighter while being careful not to fray it.
After wick is started into the hole, slowly guide it in in very small increments always supporting the wick with your fingers as it enters the hole. If it does fray, trim wick and start over.
Once you can see the wick inside the fuel cavity, grab it with a pair of tweezers or needle nose pliers and pull it through. Leave approximately 1" protruding from the top of the titanLIGHT ™ to be trimmed later.
When replacing the cotton, you'll want to fold the wick over into the cotton to create "layers" until you get to the opening of the fuel cavity. this maximizes the wicks surface area on the cotton so it can absorb the fuel.

Answers, straight up.
Product-specific questions on the left. Shopping with SRO on the right. Both open-ended — hit us if we missed one.
How long does shipping take?
Most orders process within 1–3 business days from our warehouse. From there: 5–7 business days economy, 2–3 business days expedited, or overnight if you need it fast. Free economy shipping on orders over $150 (contiguous US). Alaska, Hawaii, and Pro Eagle / freight items are quoted at checkout. You’ll get a tracking number and link the moment your order ships.
What’s your return policy?
30 days from the day your order arrives. Gear has to come back unused, with all original tags, stickers, and packaging intact. For standard items we’ll send a prepaid return label and deduct return shipping from your refund. Oversized or freight returns are on you, unless the item showed up damaged, defective, or wrong — in which case we cover it.
Refunds hit your original payment method within 10 business days of approval.
What can’t I return?
Final-sale items, gift cards, food and drink products, personal-care items, anything customized or engraved, briefs (hygiene), and hazardous materials. If you’re not sure whether something qualifies, email us before you order — we’ll tell you straight.
Do you ship outside the contiguous US?
Yes. Alaska, Hawaii, and US territories ship on freight-quoted rates calculated after checkout. International orders are available worldwide at variable rates; duties and import fees are the customer’s responsibility. EU customers get a 14-day cancellation window per EU consumer law, on top of our standard return policy.

Can I talk to a human before buying?
Yes. Email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com — we answer every message ourselves, usually within a few hours during business days. We carry this gear, we use this gear, and we’d rather talk you out of a kit that doesn’t fit your mission than sell you the wrong one.
