I’m going to talk about the torch lighter that I just bought. I’ve been using it for a couple of days and I’m very very happy with it. So it’s time to talk about it, this was recommended by someone on Instagram they know who they are. I greatly appreciate a big thumbs up when I was talking about lighters, and I want to get something for the pouch because I had the little cheapo one in there, which happened to fit fine.
I just wanted a slender lighter that I would be able to use for many years. so I wanted decent quality lighter this one was recommended. When I first saw it, I’m like that’s it, I have to get that one. And I weighed a little bit hesitated because I don’t really want to spend 30 bucks on the new lighter. However, my mind straightly told me I should get it, and finally, I did.
So um yeah here’s the butane lighter it’s a very simple concept you see on a standard lighter we have a wheel which rubs on a flint there’s a spring that pushes a flint up there so it rubs on the fly it makes a spark and as we’re sparking the same time, we’re hitting this little button here which releases the gas, this is like forked in there if you’ve never taken a later part. And when you push the button down at pivots and lifts up a little collar which let’s gas come through. So in one sweeping motion, we’re sparking. You’re letting gas out and obviously, when we’re doing this, we’re holding the button down so gas is coming out till we let go and we let go the flame goes out. Simple concept great designs in a million layers.
This one is different, there is no button there instead of the buttons down here, so we have an on and off switch essentially. The little dot is off and the fire is on, so what you can do with this, and the concept behind it is you can use the lighter to spark tinder or kindling or whatever to start a fire without the gas. If you run out of fuel, you can still light a fire, but you can still spark your lighter without wasting gas.
On this lighter, if I want to spark it, you know and there’s gas in there I’m gonna be hitting that button every time. I’m saying so it’s hard to spark this without hitting the button.
So again I can spark this as much as I want without wasting any of the gas. All you have to do is rotate this and turn the gas on the second, you’re gonna hear it that’s the on position any off position, so that’s essentially replacing our button alright. So you turn it on spark it and then there’s our flame. I have a set kind of high you can adjust this higher or even lower. It has a strong butane plane, all right you guys can see that right and when I watch this later off simply rotate. The design is very well, it makes it hands-free because you have to hold on to its button if you use the previous lighter.
Hand-free is the most advantages of this torch jet lighter, so turn on the spark that left it on the table if I want it sits upright I can do projects if I want to. I don’t know heat color something anodized something like that you know, or if I want to you know shove it deep into you know my fire. Then I’m trying to get started whatever the case may be it can use it hands-free. Two benefits of leaving the gas off, just sparking it or using a lighter in a hands-free fashion which is really really cool now.
Of course, you’re thinking alright well you keep sparking the thing what happens when the Flint runs out. There’s a little screw in the bottom, and you unscrew that you have a little spring in your Flint, so you can easily replace the Flint. The torch lighters have a couple of different colors. I was very tempted to get they like a sapphire blue, really vibrant, really cool, they also like you know spectrum rainbow color one and I think there’s a there’s a fourth color. But anyway, I end up going with the gunmetal gray. I’m very happy with it and it’s replacing the cheapo layer.
Thanks do the job even better and it’s kind of classy and different. So that’s my pocket EDC option for a long time like I said I might change. They also make a black one that’s what it was I’ll get the black born in the future replace it with a black light and get the black Fisher Space Pen alright gonna be kind of cool to a little black set up there I just like having a consistent a theme I guess but anyway there you go if you guys have that later let me know what you think of it long-term if you have all the lighters they like you know to write those as well people love lighters I love using lighters for all kinds of stuff.
