Review on πŸ’¨ Efficient Hefeiyu USB Electric Lighter: Dual Arc, Rechargeable & Windproof for Outdoor Adventures, with LED Battery Indicator by Andrew Kamkoff

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I know everyone is wondering, and yes I've used it on myself...

(In sections 4-5 I describe what it looks like). It looks like a very expensive item. It's well made, feels heavy in the hand, and has nice bevels at the top and bottom that make it symmetrical. It was only $11 when I bought it so I'm very happy with my value. Now the price has gone up to $25 and I wouldn't spend that money and just settle for my old Ronson butane jet (but I don't smoke cigarettes so I don't use it as much as most people... Basically to light the candles, light the ends of the rope and other things to light) so I can see the value for the average smoker. (Also, someone asked about using it for dishes and glass tubes, and no, it won't work, if at all). Activation is simply a touch, and it's very easy to accidentally activate it. For this reason, the lid must be closed and opened again before you can light it again. Once activated, it stays on for eight seconds or until you close the lid. The spring in the lid is quite strong and the body of the lighter itself is quite smooth...while opening it I carefully examined the rods that were emitting arcs and accidentally touched the activation area when my finger was on the rods. It shocked me deeply, what I expected. And it burned but didn't hurt my skin except for a little red spot. I don't know if that means the warm-up is just taking a little longer or maybe I just hit the edge of a pole. Anyway it was instant because I dropped it right away and thankfully the lid closed so neither my couch nor clothes got burned. I've been playing with it all day and the battery has only lost 1 LED (the power indicator only lights up when you activate the flame. The other indicators are just an activation button and a backlit nameplate at the bottom. For some reason it comes with a very small USB flashlight I think you use it on a laptop so you can see your keyboard because you connect USB and there is only a 4" flex cable to move the flat LED at the end. A micro USB cable is required but it only comes with 5" is petite but probably everyone has a decent one. sitting in their home. I wish I could buy more at the original price to give as a Christmas gift. I came back here to to make a bulk order, but now that the price has gone up it's no longer possible
