Piezoelectric Ignition Technology
Piezoelectricity, now commonly used as igniters for gas stoves
and outdoor grills, eliminates the need for batteries or flints which fail when
wet. Releasing the lighter ignition button mechanically bends the lighter's
piezoelectric crystal which produces an electric current. Ignition occurs when
an electrical spark meets the butane gas in the combustion chamber.
Windproof Flame
A continuous flame is produced as butane gas vapors ignite upon
contact with the superheated catalyzer coil element. The lighter burns at very
high temperatures (800 - 1000 degrees C; 1400 to >2000 degrees F) producing a
clean, hot flame which is nearly invisible in outdoor bright light.
Refillable Butane Gas Fuel
Easily refills in seconds with a butane gas fuel can, available
at most grocery, drug, and convenience stores. Burn time is approximately 300
ignitions at 3-4 seconds duration (over 30 minutes).
Water-Resistant - Rubber O-Ring Seal (A)
3 rubber "O"-ring seals ensure water resistance when
the lighter cap is closed. The lighter provides dependable spark and reliable
ignition even under extreme weather condition.
Fuel Level Sight Glass (B)
Fuel window on side of lighter indicates when fuel needs
re-filling.
Flame Window (C)
A ceramic flame window located on the side of the burner unit
glows a bright white color when the lighter is ignited.
Flame Level Adjustment (D)
A flame adjustment ring regulates gas flow for different
altitudes.
