It is an electric lighter with a USB port and an Inbuilt LED light. It also has a chip and open circuit protection. With this in mind, if you’re planning on hiking in high altitudes where oxygen is less dense, it is recommended that you choose a torch since they are wind resistant and capable of providing fire with the least amount of oxygen. Wind Resistance Fuel – Waterproof lighters are generally more expensive than disposable lighters because they are refillable. You can buy lighter fluid online or in camping and outdoors shops.

The most widely used lighters are butane lighters that contain liquid butane. Electric lighters are easy to use, and the ignition uses electric sparks to produce heat. Before deciding about a lighter’s brand, go through the advantages and disadvantages of the lighter best suited to you. 4. Single/ Multi-PurposeI wish Exotac would correct this negative issue with a design update. If that would be solved, it would be a real great and reliable outdoor lighter. The Eveco Windproof USB Lighter is an interesting product which works with advanced technology. It is created from a solid zinc alloy case with a bulletproof feature. It never loses the varnish responsible for its glow so it never gets rusty. The flint and steel does come under ‘traditional’ fire lighting tools. It’s manually powered. It’s definitely worth including in the expedition kit though. It’s small, light and doesn’t rely on any external power or fuel! The material of a lighter defines its durability. If you are searching for a lighter that goes a long way with you, then you should first know the quality material. Lighters should be durable and reliable in every season. 14. Warranty

JiaDa lighter is purely waterproof because of its metal body and IPX7 water-resistant grade that cause no hindrance even in heavy rain. And it is wind resistant as well because of its electric nature. The waterproof dual arc lighter comprises Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS), Zinc Alloy. USB charging cable is there for use in case you run out of battery. The battery consists of lithium polymer. The manufacturing of lighters is made of plastic, metal, or a mixture of plastic and metal. Every material is characteristic and specific and chosen with accuracy and detail. Plastic material lighters are light in weight but need to be more durable and reliable. On the other hand, metal lighters are heavy but reliable and durable. 8. Ignition Type The Exotac keeps all fuel inside the system and protects leaking to the outside by an o-ring. So far, so goods.When you’re evaluating survival lighters, ‘ABS’ is a term you should keep an eye on. ABS, or Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene, is an opaque thermoplastic and amorphous polymer. The main benefit of this plastic is that it can be heated to its melting point, cooled, and re-heated again without significant degradation. There are other types of lightweight polymers used in the construction of survival lighters today, but ABS is the most common example. This survival lighter has applications beyond simply lighting cigars, pipes, and cigarettes, although you can certainly use it for those purposes as well. It’s a butane-refillable torch lighter that boasts a wide flame and comes in a durable housing that makes it ideal for outdoor use. It comes with a clear view fuel gauge so that you know before you run out of butane. Exotac set out to produce the first rugged, waterproof, refillable lighter on the market and that goal was achieved with the titanLIGHT™. The titanLIGHT™ is a precision machined, ultra-durable waterproof lighter that uses standard lighter fluid as fuel (Zippo or equivalent). Two o-ring seals prevent your fuel from evaporating or leaking when it's not in use. These lighters are a historical style of lighter. They were invented in the 1920’s by the lighter manufacturer Colibri. These look really cool, with their long blue tongue of flame! They’re basically a mini flamethrower!
