We did multiple burns in St Landry and Acadia parish this passed December and we were able to get multiple "flashes" for each group without it being unbearably hot. We are not allowed to see how " hot" we can get it anymore...lol... I used a Cairns 1010 from My VFD and didn't have it wrapped and didn't melt it. Now my SCBA mask didn't fare as well. But I guess I had that Moth effect when we saw fire..
