this is the same calcium carbide that produces acytelene? im looking for something i can store airtight for camping and easy fires

It takes H2O to activate calcium carbide which in turn makes acytelene gas, unstable gas that is very flammable. Putting water on a pile of wood to start it seems retarded to me when you could use some smaller sticks and a propane torch.

How hard is it to dispense tiny amounts? I want to test carbide lamps without using up a good-sized chunk from the can I bought in 1964 each time.

HI. The carbide in the tube is granulated so you should not have any problem selecting any infinitesimal amounts needed.

Is it powder? can i use it on a mini cannon? that fires 30cal bb

It is a powder. It's calcium carbide, which forms acetylene when mixed with water. You should not use it in anything that fires a projectile unless it was specifically designed to use calcium carbide.

Am I supposed to mix this with water to use? Or is it ready to load and fire

You have to mix it with water, but It must be mixed inside the chamber to collect the acetylene gas. Watch videos on YouTube for how to mix it.
