Copied from my old topic in the now obsolete "Selling" Forum (I tried to get it moved). See feedback from my previous customers at the link above. I currently have a micro-sized side business selling organic hemp wick. What is hemp wick, you say?It is a hemp twine, dipped in beeswax. It burns like a match or a lighter, and you use it as an alternative to butane lighters and sulfur-burning matches. It improves the taste of your smoke while decreasing the amount of dangerous chemicals inhaled. I am serious about the change in taste. Ironically, beeswax burns so clean it is approved by the American Lung Association. http://i55.tinypic.com/vorgnb.pngI will be selling 20foot amounts wrapped around wooden tags at the current rate of 0.30 BTC. For comparison, the two major brands of hemp wick sell 15.5 feet for 5 US dollars in retail shops. If anyone ends up trying and loving the wick, bulk purchases are also possible. I can do 50, 100 or 200 foot rolls (or more!) at a discounted rate. http://i55.tinypic.com/53uw02.jpgI have a website in the works, but will put up the link later when I get more of a reputation and posting history on here. If any folks out there want to help me build community trust, let me send you a sample! They are now completely free in the US (add cost of postage internationally), one sample request per user. If you like it, think about donating anything, or better yet, buy a bundle! PM me to place an order or post your order on this thread. I will reply with a newly generated address just for you. Thanks for reading! Namaste, Shfinkel

What's it used for? Is it like a replacement for a candle?
Obviously you wouldn't use it for cigarettes, because you have to use a lighter or match just to get it going in the first place, right?

Actually, you can use it for cigarettes, as well as pipes, hooka, etc. It is not about the act of igniting your smoked material; rather, the purpose of this product is to ignite your smoked material while minimizing the chemicals inhaled from the burning fuel, and improving taste. Butane also causes drowsiness, headaches, and if you smoke enough, a dulled sense of smell and taste. It's kind of like putting your mouth to car exhaust. It sounds silly, but that is what many of my friends thought until they tried it. It takes a bit more time and effort to light your pipe or cigarette, or cigar, or whatnot, but the improvement in taste and cleanliness of the smoke is worth it.

The idea is that you use a lighter or a match to get it going, then use it as a replacement for the lighter instead of inhaling butane or sulfur.

you do use it to light a cigarette. lighter -> hemp -> cigarette.

I hear ya, but I couldn't personally be bothered to use it for lighting cigs etc. Twice the effort.
I can see how it could be useful for hookahs and other things though.

There is a definite gap between the quality expectations of the average cigarette smoker and the average smoker of cigars, pipes, hookah, etc. On the rather rare occasion that I smoke a cigarette, I don't bother with more than a butane lighter - there's simply no quality gains to be had and I don't smoke often enough to make it worth avoiding the occasional puff of butane. On the somewhat more common occasion that I'm smoking a cigar or pipe, I've always lit up with a wooden match, ensuring that all of the sulfur has burned off before touching match to tobacco. A hemp & beeswax wick is better quality still, but unfortunately for the OP I've already got one in my kit. For a connoisseur of fine tobacco products, well worth it. For a pack-a-day cigarette smoker, not so much.

In states and countries where it is lawful, this is also an excellent alternative for any patients using cannabis medicinally.
Other herbs and flowers such as passionflower can be smoked. There are also these blends of different plants that I've seen smoke shops selling as an alternative smoke. All contents were lawful materials.

Absolutely. I would recommend something like this (or at least *properly* using a wooden match) for anything of relatively high purity that is to be smoked. Too bad your average pack of cigarettes (here in the U.S. at least) is crammed full of so many chemicals that the butane is the least of your concerns...

I received my sample, shipped to the EU, promptly. It's good, too, burns well and has a mild, pleasant aroma to it. No more burning my fingers lighting my pipe!

All done moving the Earthlite HQ - I will have a nice site up soon, with a place to buy the wick for bitcoin!
I also have plans to get more goods besides the wick! I am looking to get some nice glass wick holders, and some other accessories too.
I have had some requests for specific items to be offered when I expand my inventory. If you think there is something that Earthlite Organics should offer, please PM me or comment with your suggestions!

Got my free sample today. Thanks! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) I didn't think I'd be able to notice a taste difference, but I definitely could.
