Review on πŸ”₯ Exotac- fireSLEEVE Waterproof Lighter Holder Case - Orange (Lighter Not Included) by Jackie Harbour

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great Concept, Mediocre Execution

Like many other reviewers, I couldn't put the cap on; it will work immediately and will not provide any protection. I contacted Exotac hoping for sympathy. Their email said they had never heard of such a problem, but I could try cleaning the inside of the cap and the top of the sleeve where the grooves are with isopropyl alcohol to remove any residual silicone. I was skeptical but it helped! The cap now stays in place and requires little force to remove. I think if they used a flexible silicone cap instead of a smooth hard plastic cap it would fit better. I roughed up the inside of the cap with a small strip of medium grit sandpaper and this helped lock the fit in even better. I still can't get the strip to stay on the lighter button. Also, attempting to put tape on the lighter's gas button while it's lit is an accident. And the price! Come on - it should cost $10; They would sell them for a lot more. I hope they - or someone else - find a better option. If I decide to return it, my lighter goes back to the empty pill bottle I always used to protect it. This also floats, and with a band of bright orange tape I get good visibility AND some extra tape with minimal bulk.
