Electronic Lighter

Part #: B0865TMP1Y

I had been looking at carrying an electronic lighter in my camping equipment for some time. I still have waterproof matches, but sometimes trying to light stuff in a wind is difficult. So I was pretty happy when a friend of mine gave me one of these as a birthday gift.

The lighter is listed as waterproof and it dose have a cover with a locking clasp. I probably wouldn't leave it underwater for a long period of time, but it does seem to be fairly tight and sealed. It is USB rechargeable, which takes about 2 hours to reach full charge so you can recharge it from any power source you can plug a USB cord into. The lanyard for the lighter has an emergency whistle built into the end of the cord.

Unpacking:
The Lighter comes in a box with a little facts sheet, a lanyard with whistle, and a micro USB charging cable. The lighter does come in Camouflage, black, blue, orange and red. I figured Orange would stand out the best when I enevitably drop it in the dirt or grass.
 
The Lighter:
The lighter does have a little heft to it and fits well in your hand. The corners are well protected from impact.
To open the lighter you will need to pull the locking latch open and then press the button on the same side to open the lid on the lighter. Opening the latch is not something you can do easily with gloves on. The lid does seal down against an o-ring at the base of the silver lighter section.
Pressing the button on the top of the lighter starts the arc flame. Note: Do not touch the electrodes or the flame, they hurt when you press the button.
On the side is the Micro USB port for recharging.
The lanyard has a loop to attach to the lighter on one end. It also has a breakaway, or detachable link on the same end. Just press the tabs in and it comes apart. The other end of the lanyard has a built in whistle. It's actually pretty loud.
Here is everything attached.

Common Sense and Safety should always be observed when working on your vehicle or doing modifications. Jackstands, wheel blocks, disconnecting the battery are a few of the basic safety precautions that should be used and may not be mentioned in the write ups on this site. You are responsible for your own installation, these write ups are a helpful guideline and should not be taken as an official installation instruction. My write up may be different from the kits currently out there, so alwasy double check the manufacturers installation instructions when installing anything. I try to keep the site up to date with changes that have occured as I discover them, but may not have the latest unless someone lets me know. If you feel that an install is above your capabilities after reading my write ups, I recommend getting together with a club and getting some help. Only a few times have I needed to employe some actual help from a shop to get something done. Usually welding or A/C work. While I have spent many years working on mechanical systems, I am not an expert, nor do I pretend to be one. I hope these write ups have been useful to you.
