Product Information

Safety Features: As far as lighters go, electric lighters are pretty safe as it is. Even better safety features are kind of a bonus. Rechargeable Lighters are More Environmentally Friendly! They are much more long-lasting than regular lighters which have to be frequently refilled or, in the case of the cheaper ones, thrown out after the fluid finishes. Once you get your rechargeable electric lighter it will last you a very long time. 2. How does flameless lighter work? Jet Lighter Lighters: This type of candle lighter produces a blue flame that burns at a much higher temperature than a standard soft flame, making it appear almost invisible. It is usually more expensive but produces a more stable flame, so is often safer to use for lighting candles. This gives electric lighters a number of benefits. For one thing, they’re environmentally-friendly. You can reuse them multiple times, and they don’t burn Butane, which produces greenhouse gases. If you’re charging them from a green power source they theoretically contribute nothing to global warming.

The dual control scheme is both simple and safe. The slider near the bottom acts as a safety, and needs to be pushed forward for operation. Then all you have to do is press and hold the power button. Visual Appeal: Most electric lighters look similar and most look pretty crappy. Lighters with a slightly better look or feel can be the deciding factor when most of these are so similar. One thing we particularly liked was the ring-shaped frame at the bottom of the housing. It can be used to attach the lighter to a lanyard, or to hang it from a hook near your grill. One thing we didn’t like was the plastic tip. It’s heat-resistant plastic, but even so there are limits. Leave the lighter running for too long without letting it cool off, and the tip can melt and scorch.Instead of a flame, an arc lighter produces heat via a small arc of high-voltage electrical current that's hotter than a traditional lighter, but in a more concentrated area. You activate the purple-hued arc with the push of a button, and simply place whatever you'd like to light directly in the arc's path. 3. Are electric lighters worth it? Another useful feature is the 10-second safety shutoff. After 10 seconds of use, the electric arc will automatically turn off. This is designed to prevent overheating, but it doesn’t have to limit you. Just activate the control switch again and the electric arc will return. Another benefit of these lighters is that they’re windproof. We’ve all had the experience of trying to use a traditional lighter on a windy day. It can be frustrating at best, or outright impossible at worst. Wind won’t disturb the electrical arc, so it won’t have any impact on the lighter’s performance. An electric lighter is the perfect solution to that problem. Electric lighters don’t burn fossil fuel, so they’re better for the environment. Not only that, but you can charge them again and again. The same lighter can last you for years, saving a significant amount of landfill waste. It’s no wonder that more and more people are switching to electric lighters.

The Motli Light is a reliable, ergonomic lighter with a safety tip and 1,000 uses per charge cycle. We like the RONXS Lighter for best overall, while the stylish The USB Lighter Company Soft-Touch Rechargeable Lighter is attractive enough to stay out and within easy reach all the time. What to Consider When Buying an Electric Lighter How You'll Use ItAll four of these lighters could be the best choice, depending on what you’re trying to achieve. But which is the right one for your needs? While they all would work well for both candles and fireworks, here’s what we’ve learned about each one. We were particularly impressed with the battery life on the Motli lighter. It’s rated for 1,000 uses per charge, which seems about accurate for lighting candles. There’s a Micro USB charging port in the side, and a cable is included in the box. You’ll also notice a row of four indicator pips near the charge port to let you know the battery level. What we liked: Battery Life: Going to use the lighter only to find out that it needs to be charged is the worst. Give us quality, long lasting batteries! Here, though, the Reidea can be a bit of a pain to use because that spring strength is a little too robust, and because this lighter doesn’t feature a flexible extension, so if you’re reaching down into the mouth of a votive or up to the tapers on a candelabra, you may struggle after a time to keep fighting that spring. If you have just got a few candles to light, it’s no sweat. But it’s more sweat the more times you have to repeat the process.
