RE: 1,472 °F to reactivate activated charcoal impregnated clothing
c903, those are pretty much my thoughts on that clothing. A hole can only hold so much stuff and once it' s full it' s full. That' s what carbon is. Millions of microscopic holes.
As far as having animals down wind. I have had elk down wind of me within 20 yards and they didn' t know I was there either and I don' t wear the stuff. My grandfather has told me stories of deer that have walked by him within arms reach and never knew it either and he sure didn' t use the stuff.
