Midwest Hearth Platinum Bright Embers for Gas Fireplace and Gas Log Sets - Natural Gas and Propane Compatible - Real Platinum Catalyst - Made in USA (5 Grams)

Absolutely amazing. Those completely change the look and feel of my open fire natural gas fireplace. They glow incredibly realistically, making everything look dull and dim in comparison. Light ripples and they radiate so much, it's hard to stay in front of the fireplace. I grew up burning real wood for heat and I’m wary of gas fireplaces: I'm picky. This brings gas fireplaces way closer to joy of a wood fire, and adds tons of radiant heat, like a real bed of charcoal embers. I'm a huge fan.

Used this material to “rebuild” my Jon e hand warmers catalyst, works great!

I believe the installer used something like this when my gas fire logs were first installed. Over time, the logs will get dusty and dingy, and they need some cleaning. So I had to replace my embers a few years ago, and I used normal Rock Wool alone. The Rock Worked well, but it didn't have the same bright glow as these embers. Another cycle later, and I really wanted to get that bright glow back. I picked up Rock Wool for most of the fireplace. But in key areas around my flames, I picked up these embers, and they did not disappoint. First of all, I was concerned about the price. But there's a lot more in the package than you might thing. Used in conjunction with Rock Wool, I only used about a third of the package to get what I needed (my logs are 24" wide for reference). The effect is impressive. The Rock Wool glows, but not as bright. So I will call that the cooler embers in the fireplace. The Platinum Embers grow really bright, as if they are very hot embers. The effect between the two is unparalleled. So if you want a good-looking fireplace, I would highly recommend picking up these Embers to supplement and enhance your Rock Wool.

Bought to use with metal hand warmers. Works great. Too expensive. Wish these were sold in batches costing less than $15 instead of $30 since I likely will never use even half of these,

i bought this cause after i picked up a few hand warmers one which only worked one time because the platinum pad was very thin and kind of fell apart. after i put some of this in the warmer it worked really well, so well i just put it in the other two the same way. i will say they do burn hotter.....hot enough where you cant really hold them unless they are in the bags. im sure i can tweak the amount to get it more close to the stock temp but i dont mind the extra heat.

If you are a fan of zippo style hand warmers, these are perfect replacements for the catalyst material that eventually wears out. This kit should last much longer and be cheaper in the long run as opposed to OEM catalyst replacements.

I added to my gas log ember burners. Better visual when this placed on top in a feathery manner. Basically un clump and gently pull into fine strands. If I work on the gas logs I pick up this material and store separately so I can put back on top as the last step. Works well in conjunction with stock ember material.

These are so bright! Amazing. Make sure to pull them apart as indicated and spread them thinly, either by themselves, or to accentuate the cheaper, among the less bright standard ceramic wool embers.

Work well for pocket hand warmers,, probably don't last as long the original catalyst, but I won't be running out for years.

As with other reviewers I have purchased this for replacing the catalyst material for my handwarmers. A massive saving using this compared to buying individual catalyst heads.

Used with Midwest Hearth Glowing Embers - 6 oz. Bag and the results are AMAZING. Yes expensive, but worth every penny.

pünklich noch nicht ausprbiert macht guten eindruck

Używam z Handwarmer, palą sie bardzo dobrze , są chyba nawet wydajniejsze od oryginalnych ,podgrzewacz szybciej sie nagrzewa i zużywa mniej benzyny ,można precyzyjnie dozować ilość katalizatora w palniku . Wielokrotny użytek.
