Ring of Fire Control

The Ring of Fire Control is a magical ring in Shadows of Amn and The Black Pits I and II. It provides a fifty-percent bonus to the wearer's fire resistance. In addition, Burning Hands and a Flamestrike can be cast each once per rest by using it, and the owner is also able to charm a fire elemental.b
The Flame Strike ability here casts the Cleric spell exactly and, as the minimum damage possible with that spell is 9d8, that's what it does here when the character is not a divine caster, not the stated 6d8. If they are a divine caster (Cleric/Druid/Shaman/Ranger/Paladin), however, it'll be cast at their divine caster level (for which Paladins and Rangers have a penalty of -8 and -7, respectively). Moreover, an Invoker using this ring will apply a -2 penalty to the save.
